Aims The aim of this study is to quantify healthcare resource utilization among non-
responders to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT-NR) by heart failure (HF) events and …

Background Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an effective treatment for heart
failure (HF) with left ventricular systolic dysfunction and prolonged QRS interval. However …

Introduction Although cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has the potential to improve
cardiac function in patients with heart failure (HF), a considerable portion of patients do not …

Objectives We examined trends in CRT utilization overall and by sex and race and to assess
whether CRT use is associated with a reduction in HF hospitalization and mortality …

Background When used in appropriately selected heart failure (HF) patients, cardiac
resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces mortality and hospitalization. It is not understood …

Aims Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device implantation has been shown to
reduce morbidity and mortality in selected patients with heart failure. We sought to …

Background: Although cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is effective for patients with
chronic heart failure (CHF) with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction and wide QRS (≥ …

BACKGROUND: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has established efficacy for
patients with systolic heart failure (HF). Treatment rates and factors associated with CRT …

Objectives: This study sought to assess the lifelong extrapolated patient outcomes with
cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in mild heart failure (HF), beyond the follow-up of …

Aims To determine what proportion of patients with heart failure are eligible for cardiac
resynchronization therapy (CRT). Methods and results Eligibility criteria from the trials …
