Potential proarrhythmic effects of biventricular pacing.
Resynchronization therapy involving right ventricular endocardial and left ventricular epicardial pacing improves cardiac output, quality of life, and New York Heart Association functional class in patients with congestive heart failure. Although a great deal of attention has been directed at showing the mechanical benefits and in fine-tuning the biventricular pacing configuration and protocol,...
متن کاملCardiac Resynchronization Therapy; Biventricular Pacing
Although the estimates from limited studies vary on the proportion of patients with heart failure who also have ventricular dyssynchrony as reflected by a prolonged QRS complex, often in the form of left bundle branch block, the number of such patients is large (27% to 53%) and it is certainly in excess of the rate for the general population. Among these patients, 10% to 15% are candidates for ...

متن کاملProarrhythmic potential of antimicrobial agents.
Several antiarrhythmic and non-cardiovascular drug therapies including antimicrobial agents have been implicated as the causes for QT interval prolongation, torsades de pointes (TdP) ventricular tachycardia and sudden cardiac death. Most of the drugs that have been associated with the lengthening of the QT interval or development of TdP can also block the rapidly activating component of the del...
