RAPID HF Trial: Key Findings and Implications with Dr. Barry Borlaug and Dr. Balenescu

In this informative video, we explore the use of pacemakers to improve chronotropic incompetence in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Our expert panel of cardiologists and researchers discuss a recent clinical trial examining the effectiveness of pacemaker therapy in HFpEF patients with chronotropic incompetence, a condition where the heart is unable to increase its rate appropriately during exercise. We delve into the study's findings and discuss the potential benefits and risks of using pacemakers in this patient population.
