Pacing may be influenced by learning and experience (3,15-17).
The current standard of care, known as biventricular
pacing, uses two
pacing impulses in both lower chambers, whereas the newer approach, called 'His bundle'
pacing, attempts to work toward engaging and restoring the heart's natural physiology.
Of the array of psychological factors that could be influenced by
pacing, candidates worth investigation include changes in self-efficacy and emotion.
Jude recently received US Food and Drug Administration approval of the company's proprietary, first-to-market MultiPoint
Pacing technology.
Pacing: Individual Strategies for Optimal Performance
New data from Minneapolis, Minn.-based Medtronic Inc.'s Block HF clinical trial shows that simultaneously
pacing the lower chambers of the heart, or biventricular (BiV)
pacing with a cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device, significantly improves heart failure symptoms and quality of life in a subset of heart failure patients.

Pacing study in multiple locations in the heart(C)2013 M2 COMMUNICATIONS http://www.m2.com
Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate long-term safety and change in
pacing parameters of right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT)
pacing.
Interpretation: Sinus bradycardia with an intermittent wide QRS rhythm (accelerated ventricular escape rhythm versus ventricular
pacing) and a premature junctional contraction (PJC).
The device is indicated for rate-adaptive
pacing in patients who may benefit from increased
pacing rates concurrent with increases in activity and for accepted patient conditions that warrant chronic cardiac
pacing.
NEW ORLEANS -- Biventricular
pacing resulted in markedly better functional capacity than standard right ventricular
pacing in the first large multicenter randomized comparative trial in patients undergoing ablate and-pace therapy for chronic atrial fibrillation.
Animals with the biggest ranges, such as polar bears, tended to have the highest infant mortality and do a lot of repetitive
pacing, report Clubb and her coauthor Georgia Mason.
To do your best, you also need to have a plan for the marathon itself that anticipates the details--warm up,
pacing, first miles, first half, the final six miles and 385 yards.
