Effects of dual-chamber pacing in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy on left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and on diastolic function

S Betocchi, MA Losi, F Piscione, M Boccalatte… - The American journal of …, 1996 - Elsevier
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) is characterized by impaired diastolic function and, in
about 1 4 of patients, left ventricular (LV) outflow tract obstruction. Atrioventricular (AV)
pacing diminishes LV outflow tract gradient in HC, but impairs diastolic function in the
experimental animal and in different categories of patients. To investigate the effects of AV
pacing on hemodynamics and LV function in obstructive HC, 16 patients with HC were
studied by cardiac catheterization and simultaneous radionuclide angiography during atrial …
