Local electromechanical alterations determine the left ventricle rotational dynamics in CRT-eligible heart failure patients
Abstract Left ventricle, LV wringing wall motion relies on physiological muscle fiber orientation, fibrotic status, and electromechanics (EM). The loss of proper EM activation can lead to rigid-body-type (RBT) LV rotation, which is associated with advanced heart failure (HF) and challenges in resync...
