Heart failure monitoring with a cardiac resynchronization therapy device-based cardiac contractility sensor: a case series

摘要

IntroductionThe SonR signal has been shown to reflect cardiac contractility. It is recorded with an atrial lead connected to a cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator. For the first time, clinical evidence on the use of the SonR signal in the monitoring of the clinical status of heart failure patients implanted with cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator are presented through three clinical cases.
