Market Analysis of Cardiac Electrical Mapping Platform in the Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Market
… intends to market the device in the Cardiac Resynchronization therapy (CRT) market. The device would be used in pre-screening patients to determine eligibility for CRT, during CRT device implantation for optimizing lead placement and in follow-up for examining the effectiveness of implanted …

An analysis of defibrillation and cardiac resynchronization therapy strategies in patients with failing systemic right ventricles
The expanding application of cardiac resynchronization (CRT) and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy (lCD) to include patients with congenital heart disease requires careful evaluation of selection criteria and unconventional adaptive strategies to ensure clinical efficacy. A single …

Improving clinical decision making with natural language processing and machine learning
… making. The first task was to predict cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) outcomes with better precision than the current physician guidelines for recommending the procedure. We combined NLP features from free-text physician notes with structured data to train a supervised classifier to …

Personalized Biomechanical Heart Modeling for Clinical Applications
… to predict the short-term effect of the Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) by means of an increase of ‘max LV dp/dt’. The model personalization was performed using patients MRI and pressure data in the baseline condition — prior to CRT. Then we fixed the values of all parameters and applied …

Responding to resynchronization : improving the impact of biventricular pacing in the management of chronic heart failure
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a recent therapeutic intervention that is delivered by the implantation of a biventricular pacemaker system. The mechanism of action is believed to be the correction of dyssynchrony of myocardial contraction. This approach can reduce morbidity and …

New methods for quantifying the synchrony of contraction and relaxation in the heart
… in many patients with heart failure. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a highly successful treatment for dyssynchronous heart failure. Patients are currently selected for CRT using surface electrocardiogram QRS duration as a measure of dyssynchrony. However, up to 30% of patients …

Noninvasive Multi-Modality Studies of Cardiac Electrophysiology, Mechanics, and Anatomical Substrate in Healthy Adults, Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy, and Heart Failure
… image heart failure patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). STE is an echocardiographic technique for measuring strain (contraction) in the heart. CRT is a highly effective treatment for heart failure, however, around 30% of patients do not respond to the treatment. ECGI was …

Epicardial Wireless Pacemaker for Improved Left Ventricular Resynchronization (Conceptual Design)
… the synchrony of the heart’s ventricles. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been widely accepted as a treatment for CHF. Similar to traditional dual chamber pacing techniques, CRT adds a pacing lead to stimulate the left ventricle. Left ventricular leads are implanted via the coronary …

Parameters and algorithms to evaluate cardiac mechanics by conductance catheter
… its impact on cardiac function, the therapy for its treatment and the methods for its quantification. Specifically, we describe the conductance catheter and its use for the measurement of dyssynchrony. At the end of the Section 1, we propose a new set of indexes to quantify the …

Optimierte Platzierung der linksventrikulären Sonde eines CRT-Systems durch 2D-Strain-Analyse
Calculation of circumferential strain by tracking of acoustic markers in 2D echocardiographic images can be used to describe the temporal course of left ventricular contraction. Concordance or neighbourhood of the LV segment with latest contraction prior to CRT and the LV segment with greatest …
