Effects of Cardiac Contractility Modulation in a Patient With Heart Failure and High Arrhythmic Burden

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), cardiac contractility modulation (CCM) improves symptoms and reduces hospitalizations, but there is still no conclusive evidence regarding the reduction of arrhythmic events. We present a HFrEF patient with high arrhythmic burden, undergoing CCM implantation with improvement in symptoms and ventricular arrhythmias.
