Effects of pacing in right ventricle septum on hemodynamics / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effects of pacing in right ventricular septum (RVS) on hemodynamics among atrioventricular sequential dual chamber pacing Methods Twenty patients with high grade or complete atrioventricular block received permanent dual chamber pacemaker ( DDD ),were randomized into right ventricular septum pacing group (RVS)and right ventricular apex pacing group (RVA)according to the ventricular leads position.The QRS duration of the ECG,the left ventricular ejection (LVEF),the interventricular mechanical delay( IVMD )and the plasma levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)were compared before and after operations.Results Compared with the preoperation,the mean QRS duration ( ( 187.00 ± 15.67 ) ms and (94.00 ±9.17 ) ms),the IV MD ( (43.20 ± 6.79 ) ms and ( 15.00 ± 4.08 ) ms ),the level of BNP ( ( 89.70 ± 8.30) ng/L and (40.00 ± 4.73 ) ng/L) increased( P ＜ 0.05 ) and LVEF decreased significantly ( (53.70 ± 1.34) % and (58.60 ±1.65 )% ,P ＜ 0.05 ) in RVA group,but didn't change in RVS group (P ＞ 0.05 ).After three months following up,the mean QRS duration and the IVMD in RVS group( (119.00 ±7.38 )ms,(19.00 ±4.59)ms) were shorter than that of RVA group( ( 187.00 ± 15.67) ms,(43.20 ± 6.79) ms) ( P ＜ 0.05 ),the LVEF was higher and the plasma level of BNP was lower than that of RVA group ( (57.00 ± 2.00) % and ( 53.70 ± 1.34) %,(44.20 ± 9.18 ) ng/Land ( 89.70 ±8.30) ng/L,P ＜0.05).Conclusions The RVS pacing could keep the normal ventricular activation sequence and biventricular contraction synchrony farthest without side effects on hemodynamics in comparison with the RVA pacing.The RVS pacing is more approaching physiological rhythm than the RVA pacing.
