Cardiac Pacing, Artificial
Abstract
Recent studies suggest that magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the brain and spine may safely be performed in patients with pacemakers (PMs) and implantable cardioverter/defibrillators (ICDs), when taking adequate precautions. The aim of this study was to investigate safety, feasibility, and diagnost...

Abstract
I endoleak. The recovery was complicated by retrograde type A aortic dissection, considered secondary to the bare stent. The complication was repaired surgically; postoperative computed tomography after recovery was unremarkable. Conclusion: Transapical wire-assisted deployment with rapid ventricula...

Abstract
Patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) often have concomitant mitral regurgitation (MR). Repairing the valve at the time of surgery is not universally accepted. The results of CABG with or without mitral valve annuloplasty (MVA) were compared in patien...

Abstract
We tested the predictive value of apical rocking for response to CRT.
Sixty-nine patients eligible for CRT were assessed by echocardiography before and 11 ± 5 months after pacemaker implantation. Response was defined as left ventricular (LV) end-systolic volume decrease >15%. Rockin...

Abstract
The case of a patient with a unipolar VVIR, who developed a sensor-driven increased pacing rate at rest following pulse generator replacement, is presented. The cause was pectoral muscle stimulation, which triggered a sensor-driven rate response in the supine position. The possible causes and manage...

Abstract
In patients with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, empirical antitachycardia pacing/burst pacing (ATP) is associated with a significantly decreased rate of appropriate shocks. The use of ATP as first-line therapy in ventricular tachycardia promotes less pain and better quality of life becau...

Abstract
I or Class II indication for a dual-chamber pacemaker received the Selection AFm pacemaker. These patients were prospectively followed at pacemaker follow-up visits, and data were collected on medications and device programming. Physicians identified which therapy changes were based upon the stored...

Abstract
1. In a tertiary centre, CRT implantation success rate is high and implantation procedures are safe. 2. Achieved LV lead location is optimal in a vast majority of patients. 3. We noted a significant rate of early reinterventions related to LV lead dislodgement. 4. The LV lead implantation failure an...

Abstract
Intravenous application of amiodarone is commonly used in the treatment of life-threatening arrhythmias, but the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the acute effects of amiodarone on spiral wave (SW) re-entry, the primary organization mac...

Abstract
We report a case of anesthesia for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in a child with dilated cardiomyopathy who had undergone cardiac surgery for double outlet right ventricle. The patient was a 23-month-old boy, who had undergone pacing lead implantation as a part of CRT. His postoperative in...

Abstract
Increased matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) abundance occurs with adverse left ventricular (LV) remodeling in a number of cardiac disease states, including those induced by long-standing arrhythmias. However, whether regionally contained aberrant electrical activation of the LV, with consequent dyskine...

Abstract
We investigated to what extent maximal ventricular elastance (E(max)) is dynamically controlled by the arterial baroreflex and force-frequency relation in conscious dogs and to what extent these mechanisms are attenuated after the induction of heart failure (HF). We mathematically analyzed spontaneo...

Abstract
Patients with heart failure die predominantly of progressive pump failure or sudden cardiac death. Therefore, it is attractive to believe that an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) will dramatically reduce mortality by reducing sudden death. However, unfortunately it is not that simple; su...

Abstract
Cardiac resynchronization therapy improves mortality and heart failure symptoms in patients with sinus rhythm, depressed left ventricular ejection fraction, a wide QRS complex and moderate-to-severe heart failure symptoms. The results of recent trials suggest that in similar patients with minimal he...

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia seen in clinical practice, and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Management of AF is challenging due to the modest efficacy of antiarrhythmic drug therapies, some of which have significant adverse effects or toxicity. Nonphar...

Abstract
Positioning of the pacemaker lead with MR guidance was feasible in all swine (sensing, 6 mV +/- 1; threshold, 1 V +/- 0.5). The lead could be seen on steady-state free precession images without inducing any artifacts. Rapid right ventricular pacing was feasible in all swine, and balloon stability at...
