Abstract

SILVA, Nilton et al. Multi-site stimulation of the left ventricle in a patient with dilated cardiomyopathy and permanent atrial fibrillation on resynchronization therapy. Rev Chil Cardiol [online]. 2018, vol.37, n.2, pp.110-114. ISSN 0718-8560.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-85602018000200110.
