Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) is one of the fastest-growing treatments for symptomatic Heart Failure patients, with dramatic positive effects on morbidity and mortality.
However, as with all medical treatments, individual patients respond differently to the therapy.
In this podcast, the internationally renowned cardiologist Cecilia Linde MD, from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm Sweden, discussed what patients are most likely to respond strongly to CRT and how recent clinical trials results may affect the selection of patients for this therapy.
