Abstract
Patients with cardiomyopathy and reduced left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction are at risk of heart failure (HF) symptoms and sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). In selected HF patients, cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) provides LV reverse remodeling and improves the cellular and molecular function. However controversial results have been published regarding the effect of CRT on the residual ventricular arrhythmia risk. Indeed, the decrease in...
