Left Anterior Oblique View Showing Atrial, Left Bundle Branch Pacing, and Right Bundle Branch Pacing Leads
Source publication
Left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) is effective in patients with heart failure, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of ≤35%, and a widened QRS complex. LBBP leads to iatrogenic incomplete right bundle branch block (iRBBB). Bi-bundle pacing can resolve iRBBB, further narrowing the QRS duration, and may improve LVEF. (Level of Difficulty: Advance...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) when implanted intermuscularly in patients with end-stage renal disease and hemodialysis.
This study is a retrospective analysis of 21 consecutive patients implanted with S-ICDs at three experienced...
Objective
In the COVERT-MI randomised placebo-controlled trial, oral administration of high-dose colchicine at the time of reperfusion and for 5 days in acute ST-elevated myocardial infarction did not reduce infarct size but was associated with a significant increase in left ventricular thrombus (LVT) in comparison to placebo. We aimed to assess th...
BRASH syndrome, which stands for Bradycardia, Renal failure, Atrioventricular (AV) Nodal blockade, and shock, is a relatively new clinical condition. Bradycardia develops because of the synergistic effect of AV-nodal blockers and hyperkalemia in a renal failure resulting in a vicious cycle of progressive bradycardia, renal hypoperfusion, and hyperk...
Background: The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenator (ECMO) on mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock excluding Impella and IABP use. Method: The large Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database was utilized to study any association between the use of ECMO in adults over age of 18 on mortality an...
