Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects of cardiac resynchronization therapy with optimized dynamic AV delay.Methods The study included 63 patients who underwent implantation of biventricular pacemakers for congestive heart failure.The dynamic AV delay was optimized on the day 1 week,6 months and 12 months after pacemaker implantation.The echocardiography and ECG,6MHW,QOL and NYHA grade were evaluated at the same time.Results The best optimized AV delay was between 90 ms and 140 ms(110.45?19.47 ms).Comparing the effectiveness 1 week after CRT with the day before CRT:the LVEF increased from 18.53%?4.83% to 22.07%?6.77% with the QRS interval decreased from 138.25?28.00 ms to 129.40?6.65 ms.Comparing the effectiveness of the day before and in 6-12 months after CRT optimized AV delay,the LVFT increased from 293.27?24.79 ms to 347.57?26.21 ms.There was no difference in QRS intervals.The LVEDD was upgraded from 71.43?7.12 mm to 57.06?6.54 mm while the QOL was upgraded from 74.14?6.24 to 55.15?11.02 and the NHYA upgraded from 3.12?0.55 to 1.82?0.43.Conclusion Optimized dynamic AV delay of the pacemaker parameters enhanced the short-term and long-term efficacy of CRT.
