Temporal variations in programming of CRT devices characterized
April 26th, 2005
Long-term variations in the programming of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) devices have been characterized. "The optimal follow-up and long-term programming" of CRT devices "are uncertain," scientists in Australia explained. To remedy this, D. O'Donnell and colleagues at Austin Hospital in Heidelberg conducted a study "to quantify the temporal variations in programming parameters to optimize the follow-up of these devices." "Before, during, and at specified intervals over 9 months after implant, 40 recipients of CRT devices" were examined, the investigators said. "At each visit, the patients were tested with a fixed...
