Abstract
Described here are devices, systems, and methods for improving left ventricular function in a patient with systolic heart failure with left ventricular dysfunction using baroreflex activation therapy. In general the systems have at least one electrode and a control system in communication with the electrode, the control system including a processor and memory, wherein the memory includes software defining a stimulus regime configured to effect improvement in left ventricular function. The methods for improving left ventricular function in a subject typically include identifying a patient in need of left ventricular function improvement and stimulating a baroreceptor with a baroreceptor activation device to improve left ventricular function.
