Left and right bundle branch blocks are associated with increased rates of pacemaker implantation after undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement, with right bundle branch being a much ...
ORLANDO, Fla. — Cardiac resynchronization therapy may be detrimental in patients with right bundle branch block and a very wide QRS duration, defined as 180 ms or more, according to findings presented ...
QUEBEC, QC — A new study shows that patients who harbor preexisting right bundle branch block (RBBB) face a significantly higher risk of death 2 years after transcatheter aortic-valve replacement ...
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 ...
Among patients with a wide QRS, cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) seems to help patients with an intraventricular conduction delay (IVCD) as much as it does those with left bundle branch block ...
August 4, 2004 — In an era when the number of candidates for implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy continues to grow, identifying specific patients at risk for arrhythmic death -- the ...
Incident intraventricular conduction delay(IVCD)—but not bundle branch block (BBB)—was significantly reduced by losartan-based treatment. WASHINGTON, DC—At the ...
Cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator (CRT-D) can help certain patients with non-left bundle branch block (non-LBBB) with heart failure if traditional, implantable cardioverter ...
Certain groups of heart failure patients may see improved heart function with cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator (CRT-D) if traditional implantable cardioverter defibrillator ...
