Key result

Rapidly evolving HF device therapies still lack robust evidence for newer technologies and specific indications.

Why the study?

Despite the rapid evolution of device therapy for heart failure, evidence remains lacking for newer technologies, common indications such as atrial fibrillation, and upgrading from previous devices.

Overview

Evidence gaps warrant caution before adopting newer HF devices; leaves open need for targeted RCTs on indications.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Patients with heart failure
I
Intervention
Device therapy including cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), leadless pacing, conduction system pacing (His bundle and left bundle branch area pacing), implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD), and cardiac contractility modulation (CCM)

Personalized medicine and rapid implementation of evolving device therapies and drugs are crucial for improving heart failure outcomes.

Limitations

  • Lack of evidence for new technologies as well as for common indications such as atrial fibrillation and upgrading from a previous device
  • Lack of evidence for new technologies
  • Lack of evidence for common indications such as atrial fibrillation and upgrading from a previous device

Cite This Study

Cecilia Linde (2023) conducted a review in Heart failure. Device therapy (CRT, leadless pacing, conduction system pacing, ICD, CCM) was evaluated. Device therapies for heart failure, including CRT and conduction system pacing, have rapidly evolved, but evidence remains lacking for newer technologies and specific indications.
