Optimizing Pacemaker Based Heart Rate in a Patient With Severe Aortic Regurgitation and Mitral Regurgitation
HR modification in patients with chronotropic incompetence and pacemakers can improve cardiac output, particularly in patients with valvular lesions. An echocardiography-guided HR titration protocol should be considered for patients with volume loading conditions such as severe AR or MR to determine a patient-specific optimal HR.
