Lessons learned from the Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial-Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (MADIT-CRT)

Valentina Kutyifa et al. Trends Cardiovasc Med. 2016 Feb.

Abstract

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has evolved as a Class I treatment indication with Level of Evidence A, in patients with mild heart failure, depressed left ventricular ejection fraction, and wide QRS. In this review article, we will discuss the major findings of sub-studies published from the Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial-Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (MADIT-CRT).

Keywords: Cardiac resynchronization therapy; Early intervention; Heart failure; Implantable cardioverter defibrillator.
