Core Tip

Core Tip: Pacemaker implantation is a common treatment for cardiac conduction disorders, but the impact of right ventricular pacing (RVP) on left ventricular (LV) function remains a concern. Limited information is available on the acute and early effects of RVP on LV function, particularly when comparing dual pacing, dual sensing, dual responsive and rate responsive (DDDR) with ventricular pacing, ventricular sensing, inhibited response and rate responsive (VVIR) pacemakers. This study found that RVP adversely affects LV function, with more significant impairment observed in VVIR mode compared to DDDR mode. However, both modes led to improvements in quality of life (QoL). The findings support the use of DDDR mode over VVIR mode for better clinical outcomes and preservation of LV function, while also improving QoL.
