Successful cardiac resynchronization therapy reduces negative septal work in patient-specific models of dyssynchronous heart failure.

Successful cardiac resynchronization therapy reduces negative septal work in patient-specific models of dyssynchronous heart failure.

In patients with dyssynchronous heart failure (DHF), cardiac conduction abnormalities cause the regional distribution of myocardial work to be non-homogeneous. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) using an implantable, programmed biventricular pacemaker/defibrillator, can improve the synchrony of...
