Pressure–volume (PV) analysis is the most comprehensive way to describe cardiac function,
giving insights into cardiac mechanics and energetics. However, PV analysis still remains a …

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been a major step in the treatment of heart
failure patients and intraventricular conduction delay. As a considerable number of patients …

Aims Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) plays a pivotal role in the management of
patients with heart failure (HF) and wide QRS complex. However, the treatment is plagued …

Aims Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces morbidity and mortality in systolic
heart failure patients with ventricular conduction delay. Variability of individual response to …

Aims To explore whether left ventricular reverse remodelling (LVRR) is a predictor of
outcomes in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) undergoing MitraClip …

Abnormal left-right motion of the interventricular septum in early systole, known as septal
flash (SF), is frequently observed in patients with left bundle branch block (LBBB) …

Aims Specific septal motion related to dyssynchrony is strongly linked to reverse
remodelling, in patients with systolic heart failure (HF) receiving cardiac resynchronization …

Aims In patients with systolic heart failure and left bundle branch block (LBBB), septal flash
(SF) movement has been described by echocardiography. We evaluated the prevalence of …

Aims Nearly one third of patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) suffer
non-response. We intend to develop predictive models using machine learning (ML) …

Background We hypothesized that preoperative electromechanical dyssynchrony amenable
to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and QRS narrowing immediately after CRT are …
