Comment on: Severe sleep apnea as a predictor of failure to respond to cardiac resynchronization therapy
The article "Severe sleep apnea as a predictor of failure to respond to cardiac resynchronization therapy" by Jacek Wilczek et al. was read enthusiastically.1 This manuscript was wholesome to read, and the author's efforts are admirable. Pre-existing severe SDB can impair the LV volumetric response to CRT, even in an optimally selected group with class I indications for resynchronization, which may affect prognosis in the long term. However, adding a few more points to enrich these findings would be a privilege.
