Quantification of Survival Gain From Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy: Nonlinear Growth With Time, and Greater Gain in Low-Risk Patients, Make Raw Trial Data an Underestimate of Real-World Behavior

OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to examine the impact of calculation-window duration on lifespan gain (as observed in trials) and on who gains most. BACKGROUND: The landmark trials of biventricular pacing (cardiac resynchronization therapy [CRT]) typically ran for <1 device battery life, a...
