Multidisciplinary care of patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy is associated with improved clinical outcomes.
AIMS Although cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces morbidity and mortality in patients with heart failure, a significant minority of patients do not respond adequately to this therapy. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of a 'multidisciplinary care' (MC) approach on the clinical outcome in CRT patients. METHODS AND RESULTS The clinical outcome in patients prospec...
متن کاملBeta-blocker therapy in non-cardiac surgery.
Perioperative myocardial infarction is a major cause of complications and death among patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. 1 Annually in the United States, approximately 27 million patients are given anesthesia for surgical procedures; of these, approximately 50,000 patients have a perioperative myocardial infarction. 2 The pathophysiology of an acute perioperative myocardial infarction is p...
متن کاملMid-Term Outcomes in Patients Implanted with Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
We applied cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) for desynchronized heart failure patients. We evaluated clinical outcomes including morbidity, mortality, and echocardiographic parameters in 47 patients with implanted CRT in Korea from October 2005 to May 2013. The combined outcomes of hospitalization from heart failure, heart transplantation and death were the primary end point. Median follo...
متن کاملCardiovascular drug utilization post-implant is related to clinical outcome in heart failure patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy.
BACKGROUND In select patients with heart failure, cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is the most common complementary treatment besides medical treatment. We aimed to assess the association between post CRT-implant changes in cardiovascular medication and cardiovascular mortality and heart failure hospitalization. METHODS 211 patients on optimal medical therapy eligible for CRT were retr...
متن کاملQRS morphology, left ventricular lead location, and clinical outcome in patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy.
AIMS Several studies have reported a poor outcome with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in non-left bundle branch block (LBBB) patients. Although the left ventricular (LV) lead location is an important determinant of the clinical outcome, there is scant information regarding its role in non-LBBB patients. This study sought to examine the impact of electrical and anatomical location of th...
