  • Conduction system pacing: the right choice in heart failure?

    Conduction system pacing: the right choice in heart failure?
    Jan 5 2026

    With Maria Tereza Sampaio de Sousa Lira, Federal University of Pernambuco - Brazil and Anja Zupan Meznar, University Medical Centre Ljubljana - Slovenia.

    This episode will discuss when conduction system pacing (CSP) may be the appropriate pacing strategy for heart failure patients, particularly those with pacing-induced dyssynchrony or suspected pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM).

    Key talking points include:

    • Clinical clues and diagnostic approach to PICM

    • Differentiating PICM from other causes of LV dysfunction

    • When to consider CRT upgrade in pacemaker patients

    • Insights from the BUDAPEST-CRT upgrade trial

    • Advantages and limitations of CSP (His-bundle and left bundle branch pacing)

    • Practical take-home message for clinicians managing HF patients with pacemaker

  • A multidisciplinary team approach to HF

    A multidisciplinary team approach to HF
    Dec 1 2025

    With Felix Lindberg, Karolinska Institute & Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm - Sweden, Martha Kyriakou, European University of Cyprus, Nicosia - Cyprus and Maggie Simpson, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh - UK.

    In this episode, Felix Lindberg, Martha Kyriakou, and Maggie Simpson discuss multidisciplinary care in heart failure, exploring why HF complexity and multimorbidity make coordinated, team-based management essential.

    They outline the key professional roles and how they can work together to support continuity across the HF trajectory, from diagnosis and optimisation, through decompensations, and transition to advanced therapies and palliative care.

    The discussion also addresses real-world gaps in implementation, and considers how the expanding roles of nurses, pharmacists, and allied professionals, alongside emerging digital tools, may shape the future of multidisciplinary HF care.

  • Heart failure in adult congenital heart disease patients

    Heart failure in adult congenital heart disease patients
    Oct 30 2025
    With Sotiria Liori, Attikon University Hospital, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens - Greece and Julie De Backer, Ghent University Hospital - Belgium. In this episode, Sotiria Liori and Julie De Backer discuss heart failure in adult congenital heart disease patients — covering how congenital lesions and prior repairs shape epidemiology and mechanisms (ventricular remodeling, valvular and conduit dysfunction, arrhythmias), as well as clinical assessment with imaging, biomarkers, and hemodynamics. They outline management with guideline-directed therapy, rhythm considerations, indications for advanced therapies (MCS and transplant), and pregnancy counseling. The episode also highlights multidisciplinary care models and key evidence gaps. Proposed reading: General Principles of Heart Failure Management in Adult Congenital Heart Disease.
