Three-dimensional echocardiography with left ventricular strain analyses helps earlier prediction of right ventricular pacing-induced cardiomyopathy
Background and objectives: Right ventricular (RV) pacing can lead to progressive ventricular dysfunction over a certain period. This pacemaker-induced cardiomyopathy (PiCMP) may be more common than previously reported. Speckle tracking imaging is a recent development in echocardiography that can ide...
