Over the last weekend, Chicago played host to the 2026 edition of the Heart Rhythm Society's annual conference (HRS 2026).

For the past two decades, catheter ablation stole most of the excitement in electrophysiology. Cardiac pacing was seen as necessary but boring. His-bundle pacing earned only modest attention. But at ...

The rhythm is regular at a rate of 120 beats/min. A pacemaker stimulus occurs before each QRS complex (→). This is ventricular pacing. Because the pacing rate is 120 beats/min, the mode of pacing must ...

Background Conduction system pacing (CSP) has emerged as an alternative to right ventricular pacing (RVP) for ...

Cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) constitute a major breakthrough in the management of heart rhythm disorders. These devices largely include bradycardia pacemakers, biventricular ...

IMPLANTED cardiac pacemakers may become exhausted and no longer produce myocardial response. Pharmacologic means were used in this study to restore responsiveness to partially exhausted pacemakers in ...

CRT is a surgical procedure in which doctors implant a pacemaker in both the right and left sides of the heart to help your heart’s chambers beat together. The goal is to improve heart pumping ...
