Mortality and Heart Failure After Upgrade to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Background: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is effective in treating advanced heart failure (HF), but data describing benefits and long-term outcomes for upgrades from a preexisting device are limited. This study sought to compare long-term outcomes in de novo CRT implants with those eligibl...
