Overview
This study aims to better quantify the improvements in heart failure symptoms and exercise tolerance before and after the heart rate elevation in a cohort of 10 cardiac amyloidosis patients with preexisting pacemakers.
Interventions
- Other Pacemaker Rate
CA clinic patients with pacemakers will receive a personalized pacing protocol individual to their height and left ventricular ejection fraction.
Primary outcome measures
- Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Score [Time frame: Month 4]
- Composite of any cardiovascular event [Time frame: Month 4]
