Imaging Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Although a prognostic benefit has been shown from cardiac resynchronization therapy, questions are often directed toward the prediction of symptomatic or functional benefit. Recent multicenter trials have shown the pitfalls of current mechanical markers of left ventricular synchrony, but these negative trial results have not marked the conclusion of ...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterized by heterogeneous clinical expression. Cardiac transplantation continues to be the gold standard for the treatment of end-stage cardiac diseases refractory to medical therapy.

A novel electrocardiographic predictor of clinical response to cardiac resynchronization therapy
A wide QRS with left bundle branch block pattern is usually required for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. However, ∼30% of patients do not benefit from CRT.

Background In a Fontan candidate, univentricular pacing may cause delay in interventricular conduction, which induces asynchronous contraction. Cardiac resynchronization therapy is expected to be an effective mode of therapy in such a case.

Cardiac resynchronization therapy and cardiac sympathetic function
Background: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established therapy for advanced congestive heart failure, improving both survival and hospitalization. The mechanism beneath these improvements still needs to be defined as about one-third of the

Longer Baseline Left Ventricular Activation Time Is Associated With Lower Mortality and Lower Risk of Heart Failure Hospitalization in Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Recipients. [PDF]
In patients undergoing CRT implantation, a longer pre‐implant LVAT was linked to better clinical outcome (lower risk of heart failure hospitalization and all‐cause mortality), suggesting that LVAT may help refine risk stratification after CRT. ABSTRACT Introduction Many patients do not benefit from cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) with current ...

ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) anatomy remains challenging due to anatomical complexity and limited trial data. New‐generation balloon‐expandable valves, such as Myval, require further evaluation in this subgroup.

Abstract Socio‐economic status (SES) has been associated with incident and prevalent heart failure (HF), as well as its morbidity and mortality. However, the precise nature of the relationship between SES and HF remains unclear due to inconsistent data. This study aims to provide a comprehensive assessment and data synthesis of the relationship between
