Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Upgrade [PDF]
The implant rates of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) increased rapidly through the first decade of this millennium but have plateaued more recently and may even have started to decrease in Europe and the United States.1,2 The upgrade of existing pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) to CRT currently accounts for a ...

Cardiac-Resynchronization Therapy
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 ...

Prognostic implications of left ventricular global longitudinal strain in heart failure patients with narrow QRS complex treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy: a subanalysis of the randomized EchoCRT trial [PDF]
Aim: Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) reflects LV systolic function and correlates inversely with the extent of LV myocardial scar and fibrosis.

Evidence that conflict regarding size of haemodynamic response to interventricular delay optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy may arise from differences in how atrioventricular delay is kept constant. [PDF]
Aims: Whether adjusting interventricular (VV) delay changes haemodynamic efficacy of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is controversial, with conflicting results.
