Does accelerated atrial pacing reduce left-heart filling pressure in patients undergoing AF catheter ablation and in HFpEF computer simulations?
Accelerated atrial pacing acutely reduces left-heart filling pressure, suggesting it may be a potential therapeutic strategy to alleviate congestion symptoms in HFpEF.
Accelerated pacing acutely reduces left-heart filling pressure in patients undergoing AF catheter ablation and computer simulations with HFpEF features, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic strategy to alleviate congestion symptoms. Virtual HFpEF patient cohorts hypothesize that AV sequential pacing may further optimize this therapy's beneficial effects.
