The BLOCK HF trial demonstrated that, during continual cardiac pacing, adverse left ventricular remodelling and deterioration of systolic function occurred more frequently with right ventricular than ...

Right ventricular pacing restores an adequate heart rate in patients with atrioventricular block, but high percentages of right ventricular apical pacing may promote left ventricular systolic ...

Researchers at Texas Heart Institute (THI) and UCLA crossed a significant milestone in the development of wirelessly powered, leadless pacemakers. In an article in the Nature Research journal ...

The rhythm is regular at a rate of 78 beats/min. Before each QRS complex, there are two pacing stimuli (+,v) with a very short interval (0.06 sec) between them. They are both ventricular pacing ...

Patients with indications for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) have better clinical outcomes when they undergo left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) rather than conventional biventricular ...

For the past two decades, catheter ablation stole most of the excitement in electrophysiology. Cardiac pacing was seen as necessary but boring. His-bundle pacing earned only modest attention. But at ...

SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Attendees of Heart Rhythm 2022 heard results from numerous studies investigating the impact of conduction-system pacing, which includes both His-bundle and left bundle branch (LBB) ...

Children with congenital complete atrioventricular block often require lifelong pacemaker therapy. Although such therapy restores a normal heart rate, it also results in dyssynchronous left ...
