Adjusting the QRS duration by body mass index for prediction of response to cardiac resynchronization therapy: Does one QRS size fit all?
Karaca, Oğuz; Omaygenç, Mehmet Onur; Çakal, Beytullah; Çakal Deniz, Sinem; Güneş, Hacı Murat; Olgun, Erkam; İbişoğlu, Ersin; Savur, Ümeyir; Gökdeniz, Tayyar; Boztosun, Bilal; Kılıçaslan, Fethi (Wiley, 2016)Background: QRS duration (QRSd) is known to be affected by body weight and length. We tested the hypothesis that adjusting the QRSd by body mass index (BMI) may provide individualization for patient selection and improve ... -
Predicting ventricular arrhythmias in cardiac resynchronization therapy: The impact of persistent electrical dyssynchrony
Karaca, Oğuz; Güneş, Hacı Murat; Omaygenç, Mehmet Onur; Çakal, Beytullah; Çakal Deniz, Sinem; Demir, Gültekin Günhan; Kızılırmak, Filiz; Gökdeniz, Tayyar; Barutçu, İrfan; Boztosun, Bilal; Kılıçaslan, Fethi (Wiley, 2016)BackgroundAlthough response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been conventionally assessed with left ventricular volume reduction, ventricular arrhythmias (ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation ... -
QRS prolongation after cardiac resynchronization therapy is a predictor of persistent mechanical dyssynchrony
Karaca, Oğuz; Omaygenç, Onur; Çakal, Beytullah; Çakal Deniz, Sinem; Barutçu, İrfan; Boztosun, Bilal; Kılıçaslan, Fethi (Springer, 2016)Purpose Prolonged QRS duration is the main selection criterion for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) which ameliorates left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony (MD). However, consequences of post-CRT QRS prolongation ...
