Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy [PDF]

Circulation, 2003
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), or biventricular pacing therapy, is the first approved nonsurgical treatment of advanced heart failure (HF) employing implantable device. This therapy is characterized by the implantation of an additional left ventricular (LV) lead, usually through the coronary sinus, to reach the lateral or postero-lateral vein

Cardiac resynchronization therapy [PDF]

Europace, 2004
The first case report introducing the concept of cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) was published less than 10 years ago, opening the way to the development of the first successful non-pharmacological treatment of congestive heart failure (CHF).

Cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Ochsner journal, 2009
Systolic heart failure is a major problem for Americans today, with 550,000 new cases diagnosed per year, and ultimately contributes to 287,000 deaths annually. While pharmacologic therapy has drastically improved outcomes in patients with systolic heart failure, hospitalizations from systolic heart failure continue to increase and remain a major cost ...

Predictors of clinical outcomes after cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients ≥75 years of age: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Geriatrics, 2019
Background Cardiac resynchronization therapy has been shown to benefit selected patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction. Older patients have been underrepresented in randomized trials.

The Use of Machine Learning Algorithms in the Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Resynchronization Therapy

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
Background: Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in the European Union and worldwide. Constant improvement in cardiac care is leading to an increased number of patients with heart failure, which is a challenging condition in terms of

Advances in Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy [PDF]

Journal of Innovations in Cardiac Rhythm Management, 2019
The development of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been crucial in reducing morbidity and mortality in patients with advanced heart failure. However, a significant proportion of patients who receive CRT fail to derive significant clinical benefits from this therapy.

Atrioventricular Node Ablation to Enhance Resynchronization Therapy Response in a Patient With Complete Atrioventricular Block

JACC: Case Reports, 2021
Up to one-third of patients who undergo cardiac resynchronization therapy do not obtain clinical benefit. A systematic approach can identify treatable causes in many nonresponding patients.

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Children [PDF]

Current Cardiology Reviews, 2009
Cardiac Resynchronization therapy has become an important management tool in adults with heart failure and dilated cardiomyopathy. The role of CRT in children with CHF is still unclear. Evidence is slowly emerging in the pediatric cardiology literature that CRT may have an important and useful role in certain select populations with CHF.

Left cardiac atrioventricular delay and inter-ventricular delay in cardiac resynchronization therapy responder and non-responder

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2016
Cardiac resynchronization therapy is an established therapy for heart failure patients. The aim of the study was to evaluate electrical left cardiac atrioventricular delay and interventricular desynchronization in sinus rhythm cardiac resynchronization ...
