For the past two decades, catheter ablation stole most of the excitement in electrophysiology. Cardiac pacing was seen as necessary but boring. His-bundle pacing earned only modest attention. But at ...

A within-patient comparison of His-bundle pacing (HBP) and biventricular (BiV) pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) showed electromechanical and hemodynamic differences between them that ...

Cardiac physiologic pacing, also known as cardiac resynchronization therapy, is indicated in patients with heart failure, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 50% or less, and either a ...

The cardiac pacemaker harmlessly dissolves over the course of 35 days. (Courtesy: Northwestern University) Temporary cardiac pacemakers provide essential pacing for patients with short-term heart ...

Heart problems are nothing new. Humans have been fascinated by electrocardiography since the era of Hippocrates (via St. Luke's Hospital Cardiology Department). With each passing century, medicine's ...

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was rushed to the Sheba Medical Center where early Sunday morning he had a cardiac pacemaker implanted. (Photo by JACK GUEZ/AFP via Getty Images) When you ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . SAN FRANCISCO — His bundle pacing as first-line therapy did not improve ECG or echocardiographic parameters ...

Last year, scientists at Northwestern University announced a transient pacemaker that dissolves when no longer needed. They've now improved the device, and incorporated it into a linked suite of ...

This ECG shows ventricular pacing. Note the pacer spike prior to each QRS complex, most apparent in leads V5 and V6. The P waves appear sinus in origin and have no association with the QRS complexes ...

In the UK, pacemaker implantation is one of the most common types of heart surgery, with many thousands of pacemakers fitted each year[1]. To support the growing demand for these procedures, ...
