What are the independent predictors of super-response to cardiac resynchronization therapy at 6 months?
Consistent right ventricular pacing, lack of prior ventricular arrhythmia, and smaller left atrial diameter independently predict super-response to cardiac resynchronization therapy.
Yanagisawa et al. (2014) studied this question.
