The prevalence and association of patients with impaired left ventricular ejection fraction and complete left bundle-branch block in Taiwan.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients in Taiwan had a low prevalence of LVEF<35% and cLBBB. About three-fourth of patients with cLBBB did not experience HF events, and 56% of them had a normal LVEF. The development of an effective triage strategy for these patients is warranted.
