Relationship between Atrial Tachyarrhythmias and Intrathoracic Impedance in Patients with a Pacemaker and Preserved Ejection Fraction
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). Modern pacemakers provide an index of intrathoracic fluid status (OptiVol fluid index—OVFI) by measuring daily intrathoracic impedance. This study aimed to determine whether...
