Filter by:Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are associated with high healthcare costs,as well as are a leading cause of mortality and hospitalizations. One of CVDs is a heart failure which may be associated with dyssynchrony of contraction of right and left ventricle. Chance for group of patients whose pharmacotherapy is not enough is cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT). Effectiveness of CRT has been proven in various multicenter clinical studies. The challenge limiting CRT usage is it relative low effectiveness - with significant group of patients that do not respond to this method of therapy. The device itself does not always show the true level of stimulation during interrogation; then invalid functioning is often not detected, which presents a real danger to patient's health and life. The main challenge for today's researchers is to develop new technologies, which may help to improve diagnosis of CVD, thereby reducing healthcare costs and quality of patients' lives. Smart computed systems of ECG analysis and interpretation offer new capabilities for the diagnosis and management of patients with CRT. Several reports with intelligent machine-based learning algorithms have been published, in which achieved very positive results in detecting various ECG abnormalities. Aim of our study is to show utility of ECG interpretation software in patients with CRT to assess the CRT response using Cardiomatics system.
The purpose of this research study is to learn if a new 7 day patch ECG recording monitor can serve the same purpose as standard monitoring systems. The new 7day patch is significantly smaller and lighter than previous ECG recorders.
