In patients with high-grade atrioventricular block (AVB), a standard dual-chamber pacemaker can restore A-V synchrony and ensure an adequate ventricular pacing rate. In this setting, however, the ...

The Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial with Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (MADIT-CRT) showed that early intervention with cardiac-resynchronization therapy with a defibrillator ...

A meta-analysis by investigators from FDA of three major trials of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) demonstrated that women have a reduced rate of heart failure (HF) and death with CRT at a ...

The loss of coordinated myocardial contraction that occurs as a result of conduction delay is referred to as dyssynchrony and may be evaluated in a number of ways, usually involving echocardiography.

Receipt of a cardiac-resynchronization therapy-defibrillator (CRT-D) offers long term benefit for patients with heart failure, reduced ejection fraction, and a widened QRS complex, according to a ...

Patients with heart failure, serious atrioventricular nodal block and recurring atrial fibrillation who are treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy using traditional single-site ventricular ...

Background Studies of cardiac resynchronization therapy in addition to an implantable cardioverter defibrillator in patients with mild to moderate congestive heart failure had not been shown to reduce ...

A 69-year-old man with a history of severe nonischemic cardiomyopathy managed with a cardiac resynchronization-defibrillator presented to the outpatient clinic with uncomfortable pulsation over the ...

Left bundle branch area pacing is an effective and practical strategy for cardiac resynchronization, according to a late-breaking science presentation at EHRA 2026, the annual congress of the European ...
