Discordant results from two trials comparing conduction system pacing with biventricular pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) leave open the question of whether conduction system pacing ...
Currently, there are only rough anatomical landmarks to help cardiac surgeons prevent accidental damage to the cardiac conduction system (CCS) – a network of cells that send signals to the heart to ...
Cardiac physiologic pacing, also known as cardiac resynchronization therapy, is indicated in patients with heart failure, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 50% or less, and either a ...
Vienna, 30 March 2025– The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) has released a groundbreaking consensus statement on conduction system pacing (CSP), marking a significant milestone in the evolution of ...
A 173-patient randomized trial in HFrEF (LVEF ≤35%) with LBBB (QRS ≥130 ms) showed CSP was inferior to BiVP for a hierarchical 12‑month composite endpoint. Worse outcomes with CSP were reflected by an ...
New research highlights postnatal regeneration limits and pathological remodeling of the cardiac conduction system after myocardial infarction, uncovering mechanisms behind clinical arrhythmogenesis ...
For generations, the pacemaker has been the heart’s little electrical helper, stepping in when the body’s natural wiring ...
Patients with atrioventricular (AV) block who don’t have an indication for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) do better when treated with conduction-system pacing versus right ventricular septal ...
