No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Background: The cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been shown to improve symptoms and outcome of patients with congestive heart failure (HF), and depressed left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF \< 35 %). The rate of non-responders to CRT is estimated at 30 %. Yet, the impact of frailty on the response to CRT has not been studied, until now.

Purpose : To assess the impact of frailty in the elderly, on the response to CRT.
