Implication

Physiological pacing data should not yet guide site selection; leaves open optimal strategies preserving atrial contribution in HF.

Key Points

To determine the hemodynamic influence of specific pacing sites across the right atrium, right ventricle, and left ventricle, and assess the contribution of atrial systole in normal and diseased human hearts.
Studied hemodynamic parameters during chamber stimulation in a cohort of 26 subjects, including 24 with normal sinus rhythm.
Assessed physiological responses across normal subjects, patients with compensated heart disease, and patients with heart failure.
Evaluated site-specific hemodynamic variations between right and left ventricular artificial pacing in human subjects.
Characterized the relative cardiovascular contribution of atrial systole to overall cardiac output across normal and abnormal cardiac states.
