Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT): Restoring Heart Rhythm and Function
Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) is an advanced treatment for heart failure patients with ventricular dyssynchrony, a condition where the heart’s lower chambers (ventricles) do not contract in sync. This inefficiency reduces the heart’s ability to pump blood effectively. CRT involves implanting a biventricular pacemaker to coordinate the contractions of both ventricles, improving heart function and alleviating symptoms.
Who is a Candidate for CRT?
CRT is recommended for patients with:
- Symptoms of heart failure, such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and leg swelling.
- Ventricular dyssynchrony (abnormal heart rhythm).
- Limited improvement despite optimal medical therapy for heart failure.
How CRT Works
A biventricular pacemaker is implanted to deliver electrical impulses that synchronize the contractions of the left and right ventricles. This helps:
Improve the heart’s pumping efficiency.
Reduce heart failure symptoms.
Enhance overall quality of life.
