“…26 [43][44][45] In approaching optimal therapy for patients with heart failure, it is desirable to preserve or restore normal sinus rhythm so that atrioventricular synchrony exists with optimal atrioventricular delay. 46 Optimal electrical/mechanical performance and heart rate control may ultimately require placement of a cardiac pacemaker.47 Despite the relatively high incidence of ventricular arrhythmia and sudden unexpected death in heart failure, antiarrhythmic agents cannot be recommended in the post-CAST era.11,48 Although there are some grounds for optimism regarding the ability of ,8-blockers and amiodarone to reduce the incidence of sudden death in patients with heart failure, no prospective, randomized data are currently available to justify broad application of this strategy, although a survival trial on amiodarone in heart failure is in progress49,50 (Table 1). This has led to the suggestion that the automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator may provide a better alternative.…”

“…Within 1 year after onset of pacing only 4 of the patients died. The conclusion was that pacing could represent an alternative approach for chronic heart failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy who no longer respond to drug therapy [8]. Another significant reference is the DAVID Trial [9].…”

“…Aparentemente, as estimulações septal ou da via de saída do ventrí-culo direito têm rendimento hemodinâmico ligeiramente superior que a estimulação na via de entrada ou na ponta do ventrículo direito 97 . A estimulação cardíaca com intervalo AV curto se mostrou útil em casos de cardiomiopatia dilatada com insuficiência cardíaca, PR normal e sem bradiarritmia 98 . Brecker, entretanto, demonstrou resultados divergentes e efeitos contrários desse procedimento 99 .…”
