IBVS, or Intermittent Biventricular Stimulation, is a cardiac pacing technique used primarily for patients with heart failure who have a specific type of electrical conduction disorder known as left bundle branch block. It involves delivering electrical impulses to both the left and right ventricles of the heart intermittently to improve synchrony and enhance cardiac output. This approach can help alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of life for patients with advanced heart failure.
In texting, "ibvs" typically stands for "I be vibin'." It's often used to convey a sense of enjoying a relaxed or positive atmosphere. The phrase captures a laid-back mood, suggesting that someone is in a good place mentally or emotionally.
Hello there! Now that is a question I have been looking for as I have researched the flu virus itself ✊ There are four types of flu virus- A, B, C, and the newly arrived D type Type As are known to cause outbreaks from epidemics to pandemics like the 1918 Spanish Flu which claimed millions of lives (better get that flu jab!!). Type B (IBV) has two predominant strains, Victoria and Yamagata, which I remember well. Types C and D (ICV and IDV) don't cause anything serious, for now. Type A flu viruses are found mainly in waterfowl or simply aquatic birds, for example, ducks. IBVs are found in humans, dogs, pigs, horses, and seals. ICVs are detected in pigs, dogs, cattle, and dromedary camels. Lastly, IDVs are found in cattle. Hope this helped you! 😄
