Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Women
Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2015The benefits of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) on the outcomes of patients with heart failure are unquestionable. Women are under-represented in all CRT studies. Most of the available data show that CRT produces a greater clinical benefit in women than men. In several studies, women have left bundle branch block more frequently than men. Women

Indications for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Cardiology Clinics, 2014Initial studies established patient selection criteria for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) as left ventricular ejection fraction less than or equal to 35%, QRS greater than or equal to 120 ms, and New York Heart Association 3-4. Based on newer data, post hoc analyses, and meta-analyses, these criteria have been refined and guidelines updated ...

On the Underutilization of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Journal of Cardiac Failure, 2014Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an exciting therapy that can treat patients with systolic heart failure and left ventricular dysfunction who have a wide QRS complex. Indications for its use have been refined and expanded based on recent clinical data and guidelines, yet the rate of new CRT implants in the United States has not changed much ...

Optimization of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Echocardiography, 2008Cardiac resynchronization is now an accepted and widespread therapy for patients with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction. However, there are still a significant number of patients that do not appear to gain benefit, and this is currently the focus of a great deal of research.

Future of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Future Cardiology, 2008Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has proven to be a beneficial treatment option in patients with severe drug refractory heart failure in the presence of electromechanical dyssynchrony. More recent trials have demonstrated mortality benefits associated with CRT, and even further reductions when combined with an internal cardiac defibrillator ...

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
2012Heart failure can potentially complicate all forms of heart disease. Over the last 20 years, there has been a significant increase in both its incidence and prevalence due to the advancing age of the population and improved survival from coronary heart disease – the principal cause of heart failure.
