TL;DR: In this paper, the authors tested the hypothesis that prophylactic cardiac-resynchronization therapy in the form of biventricular stimulation with a pacemaker with or without a defibrillator would reduce the risk of death and hospitalization among patients with advanced chronic heart failure and intraventricular conduction delays.
Journal ArticleDOI
HFSA 2010 Comprehensive Heart Failure Practice Guideline.

TL;DR: Heart failure is a syndrome characterized by high mortality, frequent hospitalization, reduced quality of life, and a complex therapeutic regimen that makes HF an ideal candidate for practice guidelines.

TL;DR: Heart failure is a syndrome characterized by high mortality, frequent hospitalization, reduced quality of life, and a complex therapeutic regimen that makes HF an ideal candidate for practice guidelines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term outcome of fulminant myocarditis as compared with acute (nonfulminant) myocarditis.
Robert E. Mccarthy,John P. Boehmer,Ralph H. Hruban,Grover M. Hutchins,Edward K. Kasper,Joshua M. Hare,Kenneth L. Baughman +6 more
TL;DR: Fulminant myocarditis is a distinct clinical entity with an excellent long-term prognosis and Aggressive hemodynamic support is warranted for patients with this condition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac resynchronization therapy for the treatment of heart failure in patients with intraventricular conduction delay and malignant ventricular tachyarrhythmias.

TL;DR: The CRT improved functional status in patients indicated for an ICD who also have symptomatic HF and intraventricular conduction delay and a subgroup of patients with advanced HF consistently demonstrated improvement across all functional status end points.
