Pacing-induced electromechanical ventricular dyssynchrony does not acutely influence right ventricular function and global hemodynamics in children with normal hearts.
J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol. 2009; (5): 539-44
Right ventricular (RV) pacing may be detrimental to ventricular function. However, the acute effects of electromechanical dyssynchrony on RV function are not well characterized in children. We studied acute effects of electromechanical dyssynchrony, induced by RV apical and RV outflow pacing, in children with normal hearts, evaluating electromechanical synchrony, hemodynamic response, and RV function.
