For the past two decades, catheter ablation stole most of the excitement in electrophysiology. Cardiac pacing was seen as necessary but boring. His-bundle pacing earned only modest attention. But at ...

Single-chamber ventricular leadless pacemakers do not support atrial pacing or consistent atrioventricular synchrony. A dual-chamber leadless pacemaker system consisting of two devices implanted ...

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 ...

NICE recommends leadless cardiac pacemakers as the standard of care for people with slow heart rhythms.NICE has issued final guidance recommending leadless cardiac pacemakers as the standard of care ...

NEW ORLEANS -- The Heart Rhythm Society issued the first U.S. guidelines to address use of conductive system pacing with the intent to prevent or mitigate heart failure. Conduction system pacing, ...

BARCELONA, SPAIN—Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) using an algorithm designed to minimize unnecessary right ventricular pacing is not superior to conventional CRT in patients with systolic ...

This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. This piece discusses the regeneration of the cardiovascular system. In 1999, I defined regenerative medicine as the ...

A healthy heart beats 60 to 100 beats per minute, but when that rate slows down, patients require a pacemaker. Experts say traditional versions are bulky and need two ...

Pacing Clin Electrophysiol. 2005;28(12):1322-1346. The performance of SVT-VT discriminators is linked to boundaries between detection zones for ventricular arrhythmias. In Guidant ICDs, this link is ...

The Midland Metropolitan University Hospital has opened a new cardiac catheter lab, which will reduce waiting times for ...
