Abstract
After 1Â month of single-site LV pacing, conventional and 2D strain derived echocardiographic measurements indicated improved ventricular function and synchronization in children with previous RVA pacing or LBBB. Further studies are needed to evaluate whether single-site LV pacing may be sufficient for resynchronization therapy.
