Popis: | Background The assessment of myocardial viability is crucial before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is carried out to ensure that the patient will gain benefit. Trans-coronary pacing (TCP) has previously been used to pace myocardium but may also provide information on myocardial viability. Methods Patients with a single, significant coronary stenosis requiring PCI were recruited. They underwent a cardiac MRI to assess myocardial viability. Prior to PCI, a coronary guidewire was used to measure pacing threshold, impedance, and R-wave amplitude in different myocardial segments to determine any association between the electrical parameters and myocardial viability. Results Eight patients were recruited and six patients underwent intervention. Pacing sensitivity did not demonstrate statistically significant differences between normal and scarred myocardium. Impedance demonstrated a mean of 304.8 ± 74.0 Ω in normal myocardium (NM), 244.1 ± 66.6 Ω in |
