Multi-polar stimulation of the left ventricle during cardio-resynchronisation therapy in patients with congestive heart failure: Randomised pilot study outcomes from parallel groups
Abstract:<p><strong>Background.</strong> Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) has been used for the treatment of patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) and wide QRS complexes for more than ten years. Nevertheless, the percentage of patients unresponsive to this therapy is 30%. There is recent evidence for increased responder proportions to treatments with multipolar pacing of the left ventricle (LV) in CRT. Accordingly, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of multi-polar pac… Show more
