Why the study?
Does cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improve outcomes in patients with pacing-induced heart failure with reduced ejection fraction?
Does cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improve outcomes in patients with pacing-induced heart failure with reduced ejection fraction?
The text highlights the need for evidence regarding the outcome effects of CRT upgrades in pacing-induced heart failure.
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces morbidity and mortality in patients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and electrical dyssynchrony but outcome effects of CRT in pacing -induced HF have not been studied in a large randomized controlled trial (RCT).The evidence is highly needed since one third of patients implanted with CRT are
