Outcomes of cardiac resynchronization therapy in congenital heart disease: A meta ‐analysis and systematic review
ConclusionThe overall response rate to CRT in CHD was 68%. Patients with systemic RV had a lower response rate to CRT when compared to patients with systemic LV. The total mortality rate after CRT implantation was 12%. (Source: Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology)

Two-Year Outcomes of Primary Prophylactic Use of Defibrillators for Ischemic and Non-Ischemic Cardiomyopathy 　- Propensity Score-Matched Analysis From the Nippon Storm Study
CONCLUSIONS: This subanalysis of propensity score-matched patients from the Nippon Storm Study revealed that the risk of appropriate ICD therapy was significantly higher in patients with NICM than in those with ICM.PMID:38057099 | DOI:10.1253/circj.CJ-23-0613 (Source: Circulation Journal)

Clinical Significance of Atrial Tachyarrhythmia Duration for Ventricular Arrhythmia in Patients With Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with ATA >24 h in the first year after CRT had a higher risk of subsequent VA and VAATA. The risk of VA, including VAATA, increased with the longest ATA duration.PMID:38057103 | DOI:10.1253/circj.CJ-23-0547 (Source: Circulation Journal)

Value of q waves in lateral and left precordial leads in patients with left bundle branch block to predict the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy
ConclusionAny q wave in leads I, V5, or V6 was an independent predictive factor for CRT non-response in patients with HF and LBBB. (Source: Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology : PACE)

The Emerging Role of Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing for Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy
Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) is a well-established treatment strategy in patients with persistent heart failure (HF)-related symptoms (defined as New York Heart Association class II –IV), despite optimal medical therapy, and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤35% in patients with left bundle branch block (LBBB) or ≤40% in patients with an expected right ventricular (...

Comparison of < em > de novo < /em > implantation vs. upgrade cardiac resynchronisation therapy: a multicentre experience
CONCLUSIONS: Upgrading to CRT is a safe and effective procedure regarding improvement of functional class, left ventricular function status and post-procedural outcome.PMID:38032242 | DOI:10.1080/00015385.2023.2285539 (Source: Acta Cardiologica)
