Cardiac pacing is the only effective treatment for patients with sick sinus syndrome and
atrioventricular conduction disorders. In cardiac pacing, the endocardial pacing lead is …

Aims Previous studies have suggested that right ventricular apical (RVA) pacing may have
deleterious effects on left ventricular function. Whether right ventricular non-apical (RVNA) …

Pacemaker treatment for bradyarrhythmia was first approved for national health insurance
coverage in Japan in 1974, and its use rapidly became widespread thereafter …

Remote monitoring is beneficial for the management of patients with cardiovascular
implantable electronic devices by impacting morbidity and mortality. With increasing …

Background: Right ventricular pacing (RVP) is associated with heart failure and increased
mortality. His bundle pacing (HBP) is a physiological alternative to RVP. Objectives: This …

Background Right ventricular pacing (RVP) is associated with heart failure and increased
mortality. His-bundle pacing (HBP) is a physiological alternative to RVP. Objective The …

Background Right ventricular pacing (RVP) has been associated with heart failure and
increased mortality. His-bundle pacing (HBP) is more physiological but requires a map** …

Background—Direct His-bundle pacing (DHBP) produces synchronous ventricular
depolarization and improved cardiac function relative to apical pacing. Although it has been …

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the spatial distribution of
myocardial function (myofiber shortening and work) within the left ventricular (LV) wall …

Background: Chronic right ventricular pacing has been reported to promote cardiac
dyssynchrony. The PAVE trial prospectively compared chronic biventricular pacing to right …
