Biventricular pacing in a patient with ventilatory and inotropic dependant heart failure following coronary artery by-pass surgery.

چکیده
Resynchronisation of intra- and interventricular conduction delay by biventricular pacing has become a proven therapy for selected heart failure patients. We present a case of biventricular pacing, used with great success, as a 'bail out' for a patient with refractory congestive heart failure following by-pass surgery.

Permanent biventricular ICD-implantation in a heart failure second re-do-CABG patient: a case report
Biventricular pacing has been suggested in end-stage heart failure. We present a 59-year-old patient undergoing second re-do CABG (coronary artery bypass graft) and carotid artery endarterectomy. Ejection fraction was 15%, QRS-width 175 ms. Following the carotid and CABG procedure, an implanted single-chamber ICD (implantable cardioverter defibrillator) was upgraded to permanent biventricular D...
متن کاملThe effect of biventricular pacing after coronary artery bypass grafting: a prospective randomized trial of different pacing modes in patients with reduced left ventricular function.
OBJECTIVES Biventricular pacing acutely improves left ventricular function in patients with heart failure and left ventricular dyssynchrony. Pressure-volume loop analysis has shown acute perioperative hemodynamic benefits of biventricular pacing immediately after weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting, but whether these effects can be maintain...
متن کاملOn-Pump Beating Coronary Artery Bypass in High Risk Coronary Patients
Background: There are some conflicting results with Conventional Coronary Artery Bypass Grafts (CCABG) with arrested heart in coronary high-risk patients. Moreover, performing off-pump CABG in these cases may be associated with serious complications. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the on-pump beating CABG (OPBCABG) in coronary high-risk patients in comparison with th...
متن کاملImpact of pacing modality and biventricular pacing on cardiac output and coronary conduit flow in the post-cardiotomy patient.
We have previously demonstrated the role of univentricular pacing modalities in influencing coronary conduit flow in the immediate post-operative period in the cardiac surgery patient. We wanted to determine the mechanism of this improved coronary conduit and, in addition, to explore the possible benefits with biventricular pacing. Sixteen patients undergoing first time elective coronary artery...
