Dystrophic hearts have poor contractile reserve that is associated with a reduction in myocardial energetics. We demonstrate oxygen delivery does not contribute to the limited energy production of dystrophic heart even increased workloads.

Introduction: Leadless right ventricular pacemakers (LVP) are particularly valuable for patients who lack venous access transvenous pacing (TVP) or at risk pocket complications including infection, erosion, hematoma. Since such constitute a unique population, we sought to compare their 2-year survival (SURV) that of paced with traditional TVP conduction system (CSP). Hypothesis: The SURV treated LVP reasons related potential is different from the CSP patients. Methods: We calculated weighted...
