“…With increasing evidence of potential adverse effects of permanent RV pacing mainly because of systolic dyssynchrony, 4,5 other pacing modalities or pacing modes are being considered. Biventricular pacing is one of the options and has been shown to be potentially superior to RV pacing even for those who require pacing but do not have a conventional indication for biventricular pacing.…”

“…patients with normal LVEF seem more resistant to the adverse effects of RV pacing, 4,5,23 but LV dysfunction is still commonly observed especially in those with frequent and long-term ventricular pacing. 38 However, the depression of LV systolic function can become manifest at an early stage and may persist after the cessation of pacing.…”

Cardiac Failure Review

Chronic heart failure is still a major challenge for healthcare. Currently, cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) has been incorporated into the updated guideline for patients with heart failure, left ventricular ejection fraction ≤35 % and prolonged QRS duration. With 20 years of development, the concept of ‘from bench to bedside’ has been illustrated in the field of CRT. Given the fact that the indications of CRT keep evolving, the role of CRT is not limited to the curative method for heart failure. We therefore summarise with the perspective of 5P medicine – preventive, personalised, predictive, participatory, promotive, to review the benefit of CRT in the prevention of heart failure in those with conventional pacemaker indications, the individualised assessment of patient’s selection, the predictor of responders of CRT, and the obstacles hindering the more application of CRT and the future development of this device therapy.
