Termination of desynchronization rhythm and restoration of cardiac resynchronization by left‐sided ventricular premature complexes

Cardiac resynchronization devices that sense left ventricular (LV) activity and can detect interruptions of resynchronization therapy are able to record all forms of desynchronization rhythms, which are triggered by misalignment of LV timing cycles. We report five cases of this desynchronization rhy...

Zusammenfassung:Cardiac resynchronization devices that sense left ventricular (LV) activity and can detect interruptions of resynchronization therapy are able to record all forms of desynchronization rhythms, which are triggered by misalignment of LV timing cycles. We report five cases of this desynchronization rhythm that were terminated by isolated left‐sided ventricular premature complexes (LVPC) undetected by the right ventricular (RV) channel and unaccompanied by changes in the duration of the RV pacing cycles. In three cases, the devices did not even sense the LVPCs responsible for desynchronization termination. The restoration of resynchronization in our cases is in contrast to the traditional termination mode that is invariably associated with changes in the duration of the RV cycles.
