Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy – A Breakthrough in Heart Failure Treatment

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Introduction

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) is a procedure that uses a special type of pacemaker to improve the heart’s rhythm and function. It helps the heart’s chambers beat in a more coordinated way. This therapy is mainly used in patients with heart failure and irregular heartbeats.

Precision Pacing with Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

During CRT, a device called a biventricular pacemaker is implanted under the skin near the collarbone. Thin wires (leads) are guided through blood vessels into the heart to send electrical signals to both the left and right ventricles. These synchronized signals help the heart pump blood more efficiently. CRT is performed in a cardiac catheterization lab using fluoroscopy to guide lead placement. The procedure typically takes 2–4 hours and is done under local anesthesia with mild sedation. This therapy improves heart rhythm, reduces symptoms of heart failure, and enhances overall cardiac output.

Why It’s Done?

• To treat heart failure caused by weakened heart muscles (systolic heart failure).
• For patients with a wide QRS complex on ECG, indicating electrical dyssynchrony.
• To reduce symptoms such as fatigue, breathlessness, and fluid retention.
• To lower the risk of hospitalization and improve survival in selected heart failure patients.
• For patients who have not responded well to medication therapy alone.
