Core Tip |
Our case demonstrates that biventricular pacing (cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker, CRT-P) can be an effective modality of treatment in acute congestive heart failure. In particular, it can be used when it is secondary to left ventricular dysfunction and severe mitral regurgitation attributed to significant dyssynchrony created by right ventricular pacing in patients with atrioventricular (AV) nodal ablation for chronic atrial fibrillation. our case matches recent update to guidelines that CRT can be useful in patients with atrial fibrillation and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 35% if AV nodal ablation will allow ventricular pacing with CRT except our patient has LVEF > 35%. |
