What Is CRT?
CRT involves implanting a small device, similar to a pacemaker, that delivers electrical signals to both the left and right ventricles of the heart. This ensures synchronized contractions, optimizing the heart’s ability to pump blood effectively.
Why Choose CRT?
- Tailored for advanced heart failure: Ideal for patients with moderate to severe heart failure and electrical conduction abnormalities, such as left bundle branch block (LBBB).
- Enhances quality of life: Helps reduce symptoms, improve exercise capacity, and decrease hospitalizations related to heart failure.
- Proven to increase survival: Clinical studies have demonstrated significant long-term benefits for eligible patients.

Is CRT Right for You?
CRT may be recommended for individuals with:
- Persistent symptoms of heart failure despite optimal medical treatment.
- A weakened left ventricle (low ejection fraction).
- Specific ECG abnormalities indicating delayed electrical activation of the heart.
- Evidence of mechanical dyssynchrony assessed through echocardiography, including advanced parameters like strain echocardiography (GLS), which provide deeper insights into the heart’s coordination and contraction efficiency.
What to Expect During CRT
- Preparation: A thorough evaluation, including advanced diagnostics, ensures the procedure is right for you.
- Procedure: Performed under local anesthesia, the device is implanted through a minimally invasive approach.
- Recovery: Most patients experience a quick recovery and noticeable symptom improvement within weeks.
