Atrio-Ventricular Dyssynchrony After Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy: An Unusual Contributor to Heart Failure Symptoms

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is the mainstay for the management of systolic heart failure with LVEF <35% and evidence of dyssynchrony despite optimal medical therapy. After CRT placement, persistent dyssynchronization is possible and can contribute to heart failure symptoms despite a w...

description Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is the mainstay for the management of systolic heart failure with LVEF <35% and evidence of dyssynchrony despite optimal medical therapy. After CRT placement, persistent dyssynchronization is possible and can contribute to heart failure symptoms despite a well-functioning CRT device. Echo-guided imaging can be beneficial for the optimization of CRT in selected patients who have evidence of continued dyssynchrony despite a well-functioning CRT device.
