NCT05541679
The purpose of the study is to investigate the superiority of chronic left bundle branch area pacing compared to traditional right ventricular (RV) septal pacing in patients with high-grade conduction disease after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). In this investigator initiated, multicenter, prospective, double-blinded, crossover study, chronic left bundle branch area pacing will be compared to chronic right ventricular septal pacing using echocardiographic measures of left ventricular systolic function in patients with a high cumulative ventricular pacing burden after TAVR.
NCT06474819
Multicenter randomized controlled trial which will include patients with left ventricular ejection fraction \>50% requiring a first implant of a cardiac pacemaker with expected high pacing percentages. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to right ventricular apical pacing vs left septal or deep septal pacing. The primary endpoint will be pacing-induced cardiomyopathy during the first year of follow-up.
NCT01477658
Recent studies have shown that chronic stimulation of the right ventricle can cause deleterious effects to cardiac function and synchronicity. The occurrence and consequences of this phenomenon in children and young patients with cardiac pacemaker due to advanced atrioventricular block (AVB) are still unknown. Thus, our aims is to assess the chronic effects of cardiac pacing in children and young patients with advanced AVB and its impact on clinical, functional and echocardiographic parameters.
NCT00374608
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the exercise capacity of patients with complete heart block who are chronically being paced from the right ventricle. Also, we hope to correlate the level of uncoordinated contraction with the patients exercise capacity. We will enroll patients with complete heart block as diagnosed by standard electrocardiographic means and now have a permanent pacemaker. All patients we approach for this study will receive an echocardiogram to assess their heart function. As part of the echocardiogram, they will also receive a Tissue Synchronization Imaging (TSI) evaluation to assess the level of uncoordinated contraction they have. The patients will then be subjected to a cardiac exercise stress test which will involve them running on a treadmill until they cannot continue while data is collected regarding their heart's response to exercise. All portions of the study are noninvasive, which means they work from probes and monitors outside the body.
