Toward understanding response to cardiac resynchronization therapy: left ventricular dyssynchrony is only one of multiple mechanisms

Structured PICO

Does left ventricular dyssynchrony alone predict response to cardiac resynchronization therapy?

Population

Patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT)

Intervention

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT)

Outcome

CRT response

Long-axis dyssynchrony measurements alone are insufficient to predict CRT response, missing 40% of responders.

Abstract

CRT response is dictated by correction of multiple independent mechanisms of which LVDYS is only one. Long-axis DYS measurements alone failed to detect 40% of responders.
