LBBB is linked to electrical abnormalities, causing inefficient heart pumping, dilation, and systolic dysfunction. The study found LBBB associated with increased heart failure risk, surpassing other ...
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 ...
The findings suggest that use of the pacing technique during CRT should be reserved for expert operators, at least for now.
Cardiac resynchronization therapy is a key treatment for patients with HFrEF and electrical dyssynchrony, such as LBBB. While ...
New-onset LBBB following TAVR is associated with increased 1-year mortality, rehospitalization, and permanent pacemaker implantation.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Conduction abnormalities like complete heart block (CHB) and left bundle branch block (LBBB) remain common in today’s TAVI patients, with some facing pacemaker implantation or even ...
The study showed that LBBP significantly reduced the risk of death or hospitalization for heart failure compared with BiVP in ...
