Right Ventricle and Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy. Spectator or Actor?

Lately, RV dysfunction has emerged as a significant prognostic factor in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). More so, recent data show a specific pattern of RV contraction in LBBB patients that is corrected by CRT, but not in patients with RV failure. The importance of RV evaluatio...
