Key result
Targeted left ventricular lead placement, multi-site pacing, and endocardial pacing represent promising alternative strategies to improve cardiac resynchronization therapy response rates.
Why the study?
Do targeted lead placement, multi-site pacing, or endocardial pacing improve response to CRT in patients with heart failure and ventricular dyssynchrony?
Do targeted lead placement, multi-site pacing, or endocardial pacing improve response to CRT in patients with heart failure and ventricular dyssynchrony?
Novel CRT delivery methods, including targeted lead placement and endocardial pacing, may improve outcomes for the significant minority of heart failure patients who do not respond to conventional CRT.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Should not yet change CRT practice; leaves open whether targeted or endocardial strategies improve response rates.
Sohal et al. (2014) conducted a review in Heart failure with ventricular dyssynchrony. Targeted lead placement, multi-site pacing, and LV endocardial pacing was evaluated. Targeted left ventricular lead placement, multi-site pacing, and endocardial pacing represent promising alternative strategies to improve cardiac resynchronization therapy response rates.
