Appropriate CRT pacing is difficult to ensure in the setting of AF, as loss of atrioventricular (AV) synchrony and uncontrolled ventricular rate could cause suboptimal delivery of CRT pacing. 2 3 ...

Multiple shocks in a patient with a cardiac resynchronization ICD with extended bipolar sensing (Contak C™) due to double counting initiated by a pacemaker-mediated tachycardia prevention algorithm.

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), also called biventricular pacing, uses a special kind of pacemaker -- a biventricular pacemaker -- that is designed to help the ventricles contract more ...

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a well-established treatment for symptomatic heart failure patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, prolonged QRS duration, and abnormal QRS ...

BACKGROUND: Patients with refractory, symptomatic left ventricular (LV) mid-cavity obstructive (LVMCO) hypertrophic cardiomyopathy have few therapeutic options. Right ventricular pacing is associated ...

1. Introduction Children with congenital dysrhythmias, channelopathies or congenital heart disease (CHD) frequently require implantation of a pacemaker (PM) or implantable cardioverter defibrillator ...

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 ...
