…risk factor for death [15]. For patients with LBBB and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) $< 35%$, the implantation of a defibrillator or…

…the left ventricle has the highest oxygen demand. The right ventricle and the atria work against much lower resistances and therefore have lower oxygen demands…

…activation of the ventricular myocardium. The ventricles should be depolarized (activated) by impulses spreading through the left and right bundle branch, which branches out into…

…the ability of the left ventricle to relax during diastole. Compliance is fundamental to diastolic function. High compliance is desirable and means that the ventricle…

…left ventricular pumping capacity is reduced and it is synonymous with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFREF ). Average ejection fraction 63% to 69% Lower…
