APRIL 30, 2024
In patients undergoing non-physiologic pacemaker (PM) implantation (eg, RV pacing), cardiomyopathy (CM) may develop - particularly in patients with an elevated pacing burden. In contrast to the current standard of upgrading the pacemaker only once CM develops, a strategy to predict CM before it actually develops would be advantageous.
