Impact of age on mid-term clinical outcomes and left ventricular reverse remodeling after cardiac resynchronization therapy.

CONCLUSIONS: In elderly HF patients, CRT provided the same clinical benefits as in non-elderly HF patients, furthermore, there was a similar trend in LV reverse remodeling between the 2 groups. The present study demonstrated that the indication of CRT implantation should not be determined by age.
