Cardiac resynchronization therapy–defibrillator (CRT-D) may reduce the incidence of first ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VTA) in patients with heart failure (HF) and left bundle branch block (LBBB).
Cardiac resynchronization therapy–defibrillator (CRT-D) may reduce the incidence of first ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VTA) in patients with heart failure (HF) and left bundle branch block (LBBB).
As if we don’t live this everyday, This article shows that In patients with LBBB and HF, early intervention with CRT-D reduces mortality, ventricular arrhythmia burden, and frequency of multiple appropriate ICD shocks.
Once again supporting that VT/VF is a predictor of increased mortality
