Does cardiac resynchronization therapy improve outcomes in patients with symptomatic congestive heart failure and ventricular dyssynchrony?
Cardiac resynchronization therapy offers potential symptomatic benefits for patients with heart failure and ventricular dyssynchrony, with ongoing trials needed to refine selection criteria and demonstrate prognostic benefit.
Roux Charles (2002) conducted a review in Congestive heart failure. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) was evaluated. Cardiac resynchronization therapy offers potential benefits including improved exercise capacity and quality of life for patients with symptomatic congestive heart failure and ventricular dyssynchrony.
