Global longitudinal strain as a predictor of response to cardiac contractility modulation in patients with heart failure: a case series
Anno:
2023
BACKGROUND: Cardiac contractility modulation (CCM) in heart failure (HF) patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is an innovative therapy which may contribute to increased exercise capacity and quality of life and reduced hospitalizations. With speckle-tracking echocardiography and global longitudinal strain (GLS), changes in myocardial function can be detected with…
S-ICD offers a potential synergistic therapy for heart failure patients with an indication for ICD implantation and candidates for CCM implantation
Anno:
2023
CCM (cardiac contractility modulation) is a very promising therapy in heart failure patients as it allows, by increasing intracellular calcium handling, an improvement in cardiac contractility, ejection fraction, and patient quality of life. It delivers high-energy (7.5 V) and long-duration (about 20 milliseconds) pulses in absolute refractory period through…
