Background: Optimisation of atrioventricular (AV) delay time has positive effects on left ventricular (LV) functions in patients with a DDD pacemaker. However, the method used for optimisation is still debated.Aim: To evaluate the effect of different AV delay times on various LV systolic performances by using automated functional imaging (AFI) in patients with a DDD pacemaker and preserved LV systolic function.Methods: The study population consisted of 40 patients with a DDD pacemaker implanted for third degree AV block and preserved LV systolic function (19 men; mean age 64.3 ± 10.9 years). During each pacing period, blood samples were taken for the measurement of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels, and telemetric and echocardiographi...
