Patient assessment for cardiac resynchronization therapy: Past, present and future of imaging techniques Auger D; Ducharme A; Harel F; Thibault B; O'Meara ECan J Cardiol 2010[Jan]; 26 (1): 27-34It has been proposed that dyssynchrony assessment before cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) implantation could help predict response to CRT. It is known that up to 40% of patients who receive a CRT device for established indications do not respond to CRT. Great expectations came from the Predictors of Response to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (PROSPECT) study, which would finally identify the ultimate echocardiographic dyssynchrony criteria to help select responders. The recently published PROSPECT trial failed to identify an ideal parameter of dyssynchrony. Patient selection for CRT should involve a multimodal approach, and new promising tools are being investigated in that view. The present review integrated new data coming from the exciting field of imaging with currently available evidence to generate a stepwise approach to patient selection.|*Cardiac Pacing, Artificial[MESH]|Diagnostic Imaging/*methods[MESH]|Electrocardiography[MESH]|Heart Failure/classification/therapy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Patient Selection[MESH]|Randomized Controlled Trials as Topic[MESH]|Ventricular Dysfunction, Left/therapy[MESH] |
