Effect of biventricular pacing therapy in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy with severe congestive heart failure

Abstract: In view of these findings, BVP therapy may contribute to the development of new therapeutic method for patients with severe CHF due to DCM.

“…Because cardiac resynchronization improves ventricular hemodynamic performance, reduces the degree of mitral regurgitation (contributing to a decrease in left atrial overload), and decreases plasma norepinephrine levels, 14 -19 it has been proposed that CRT might prevent or delay the onset of AF in heart failure patients. 25 On the other hand, pacing per se might increase the risk of developing AF. In patients with sick sinus syndrome, the induction of AF increased linearly with the cumulative percentage of pacing of the ventricle not only in patients with single-chamber ventricular pacing (VVI) but also in patients with sequential stimulation (DDD).…”

“…This is the first report of the use of oral flecainide to successfully suppress persistent AF in a case with CRT. Atrioventricular node ablation (5) and oral amiodarone (7), a Vaughan–Williams class III anti‐dysrhythmic agent, may be beneficial to treat AF in patients with CRT. In this case, we tried to use oral flecainide temporarily for AF, because the refused atrioventricular node ablation.…”

“…In der Regel wird Vorhofflimmern durch einen Trigger wie eine Änderung des autonomen Tonus oder eine Steigerung der atrialen Wandspannung ausgelöst. Da die CRT die ventrikuläre Hämodynamik verbessert, den Schweregrad einer Mitralinsuffizienz und damit die Vorhofbelastung vermindert und den Noradrenalinspiegel senkt, könnte sie möglicherweise das Neuauftreten von Vorhofflimmern bei Patienten mit Herzinsuffizienz verhindern oder verzögern [7,9,36]. Andererseits könnte die Schrittmacherstimulation selbst das Risiko für Vorhofflimmern erhöhen.…”
