  1. 1. Hemodynamic aspects of biventricular pacing in heart failure

    Författare :Marcus Ståhlberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Heart failure; biventricular pacing; hemodynamic monitoring; heart rate; cardiac output;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aims: Biventricular pacing or cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established treatment option for selected heart failure (HF) patients. We aimed at evaluating acute and longer-term hemodynamic effects of different pacemaker programmings in CRT patients. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Implantable devices in heart failure : studies on biventricular pacing and continuous hemodynamic monitoring

    Författare :Frieder Braunschweig; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Implantable devices; congestive heart failure; biventricular pacing; hemodynamic monitoring; ambulatory; hospitalizations; positron emission tomography; stress; blood flow; loop diuretics; natriuretic peptides; hemodynamics.;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic heart failure is a highly symptomatic syndrome associated with increasing prevalence, frequent hospital admissions and high treatment costs. Despite recent advances in drug therapy, morbidity and mortality are still high. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Global sequence and dispersion of ventricular repolarization: In vivo validation of non-invasive parameters using monophasic action potential mapping technique

    Författare :Yunlong Xia; Kardiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kardiovaskulära systemet; Cardiovascular system; dispersion; electroanatomical mapping; T wave; epicardial pacing; Ventricular repolarization; monophasic action potential;

    Sammanfattning : The purposes are to validate the noninvasive parameters, QT interval, QT dispersion, Tpeak-Tend interval, and the activation recovery time (ART) for estimation of global dispersion of ventricular repolarization (DVR), and to investigate the changes of repolarization sequence and DVR by altered ventricular pacing sites. The material consisted of 12 patients (Study I) and two series healthy pigs with 10 in each (Studies II and III; Studies IV and V). LÄS MER

  5. 4. Electromechanical effects and optimization modalities of cardiac resynchronization therapy

    Författare :Cinzia Valzania; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Cardiac resynchronization therapy; coronary blood flow; dyssynchrony; echocardiography; exercise; heart failure; hemodynamics; intracardiac electrogram; intracardiac impedance; optimization;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aims: Heart failure is a major health care problem, with high morbidity and mortality rates. In recent years, cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has become an established additive treatment for patients with advanced heart failure, left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, and wide QRS complex.
