Background: Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) has been shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with end-stage heart failure (HF). However, long-term results of CRT have not yet been validated. Aim: To assess the sustained benefit of CRT in patients with end-stage HF at long-term follow-up. In addition, predictors of response to CRT were analysed. Methods: Twenty-eight patients with end-stage HF, NYHA class ≥III (≥II in patients with indications for ICD and echocardiographic signs of ventricular mechanical systolic dyssynchrony), left ventricular ejection fraction 120 ms and left bundle branch block morphology received a biventricular device (BiV). In 27 patients LV pacing was achieved via the coronary sinus ...
