Abstract: Left ventricular (LV) mechanical dyssynchrony (MD) represents dyskinetic myocardium or myocardial scar tissue which ‘‘pushes outwards’’ during systole, and has been shown previously to be and independent marker of poor outcome. Dyssynchronous myocardium is deleterious… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND In heart failure (HF) patients, left ventricular mechanical dispersion (LVMD) reflects heterogeneous mechanical activation of the left ventricle. In HF patients, LVMD can be reduced after CRT. Whether lesser LVMD is associated with improved… read more here.

Abstract: AIMS Left ventricular (LV) mechanical dispersion (MD) may result from heterogeneous electrical conduction and is associated with adverse events. The present study investigated (i) the association between LV MD and the extent of LV scar… read more here.

Abstract: Left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony (LVMD) has shown to predict many cardiovascular outcomes including ventricular arrhythmias. Our hypothesis is that LVMD can reveal early atrial dysfunction. The aim of this study was to investigate whether LVMD… read more here.

Abstract: Patients with severely depressed left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEFs) receive implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) for the primary prevention of sudden death. However, in some patients, LVEFs may improve or even normalize over time, and these patients… read more here.

DOI: 10.2147/jmdh.s450264
Abstract: Objective Left ventricular (LV) mechanical dyssynchrony (LVMD) is fundamental to the progression of heart failure and ventricular remodeling. The status of LVMD in different patterns of bundle branch blocks (BBB) is unclear. In this study,… read more here.
