  • Title: [Results of electrical pacing in patients with hypertrophic obstruction cardiomyopathy (author's transl)].
    Author: Hassenstein P, Storch HH, Schmitz W.
    Journal: Thoraxchir Vask Chir; 1975 Oct; 23(5):496-8. PubMed ID: 812206.
    Abstract:
    In patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, left ventricular outflow gradient decreased about 56 per cent by way of electrical stimulation of the apex of the right ventricle. In 4 patients a permanent pacemaker was implanted. P-wave triggered pacemakers with electronic conduction-time of approximately 0 sec showed to be preferable. The decrease of left ventricle outflow gradient as well as of subjective complaints inclusively cerebral syncopes were remarkable.
