| Abstract: | We evaluated whether cardiac resynchronization therapy affects the prevalence of ventricular tachycardia in relation to reverse remodeling in patients with end-stage heart failure. Clinical, echocardiographic, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) data of 17 patients with ICDs were obtained before and after they had received an upgrade to an ICD-cardiac resynchronization therapy device. |
