What We Can Learn from “Super-responders” - 20/12/17
Résumé |
This review discusses the state of the art of knowledge to help decision making in patients who are candidates for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and to analyze the long-term total and cardiac mortality, sudden death, and CRT with a defibrillator intervention rate, as well as the evolution of echocardiographic parameters in patients with a left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction of greater than 50% after CRT implantation. Owing to normalization of LV function in super-responders, the need for a persistent defibrillator backup is also considered.
