Left Ventricular Phase Analysis and Outcomes of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Background: Left ventricular dyssynchrony plays an important role in predicting response to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT). Methods: Thirty patients underwent CRT implantation. Assessment of Left Ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony was done through Gated Spect LV phase analysis. Results: Thirty patients received CRT (mean age 58.7 ±9.0, 24 males). CRT implantation had a favorable prognosis o...
متن کاملTreatment of left ventricular non-compaction with cardiac resynchronization therapy.
Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is a genetic cardiomyopathy often familial and autosomal dominant. It is characterized by morphological abnormalities affecting the left ventricular myocardium with prominent trabeculations of the inner surface of the ventricle, often extending deep into the ventricular wall. There are no pathognomonic histological findings with normal myocytes being inter...
متن کاملPaced left ventricular QRS width and ECG parameters predict outcomes after cardiac resynchronization therapy: PROSPECT-ECG substudy.
BACKGROUND For patients with symptomatic New York Heart Association class III or IV, ejection fraction ≤ 35%, and QRS ≥ 130 ms, cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has become an established treatment option. However, use of these implant criteria fails to result in clinical or echocardiographic improvement in 30% to 45% of CRT patients. METHODS AND RESULTS The Predictors of Response to CR...
متن کاملAlternative techniques for left ventricular pacing in cardiac resynchronization therapy.
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an important treatment modality for a well-defined subgroup of heart failure patients. Coronary sinus (CS) lead placement is the first-line clinical approach but the insertion is unsuccessful in about 5-10% of the patients. In recent years, the number of CRT recipients and the considerable need for left ventricular (LV) lead revisions increased enormou...
متن کاملThoracoscopic Left Ventricular Lead Implantation in Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Cardiac resynchronization therapy is known to reduce morbidity and mortality in patients with advanced heart failure as a result of dyssynchrony and systolic dysfunction of the left ventricle. Placement of the left ventricular (LV) lead via the coronary sinus can be difficult. When LV lead implantation is difficult, a video-assisted epicardial approach can be a good alternative. Although there ...
