Core Tip
Core Tip: The detrimental effects of long-term apical right ventricular pacing (RVP) on left ventricular (LV) functions have necessitated the search for strategies to mitigate pacing-induced cardiomyopathy. Amongst them, allowing for a more physiological pacing and reducing the RVP burden by appropriate programming are the most clinically relevant interventions. The index study by the authors supports a net beneficial effect of dual responsive and rate responsive (DDDR) compared to ventricular paced, ventricular sensed, inhibited response and rate responsive (VVIR) mode in terms of better LV function and performance in the short-term by maintaining the atrio-ventricular synchrony. Further, as in prior studies, new-onset AF was more frequent with VVIR compared to DDDR.
