Key result
Ultra High Frequency ECG (UHF-ECG) provides unique measures of interventricular dyssynchrony and activation wavefront width compared to other noninvasive mapping tools.
Why the study?
Assessing ventricular dyssynchrony is important for identifying candidates for CRT and evaluating pacing therapies, but existing noninvasive electrophysiological mapping tools vary in complexity and limitations.
Does Ultra High Frequency ECG (UHF-ECG) improve the assessment of ventricular dyssynchrony compared to other noninvasive electrophysiological mapping tools?
Does Ultra High Frequency ECG (UHF-ECG) improve the assessment of ventricular dyssynchrony compared to other noninvasive electrophysiological mapping tools?
UHF-ECG offers unique markers of ventricular dyssynchrony and rapid conduction that may be superior to traditional QRS duration for evaluating physiological pacing and CRT.
