Working Group ofHeart Failure and Cardiac Function How to assess the effects of CRT ?
1994-2006 : 12 years of CRT What did we learn ? • Permanent LV pacing is feasible and safe • CRT improves functional status and quality of life • CRT decreases hospitalization rate (inconsistent) • CRT reverts LV remodeling • CRT improves survival (CARE-HF)
Evaluation of CRT Invasive : pressure-volume loops Exercise capacity : 6-min walk test treadmill ex. : peak VO2 Holter recording : arrhythmias heart rate variability Biology : changes in BNP and neurohormones Functional status and quality of life Imaging techniques : Doppler Echo , MRI
Definition of Responder and Non Responder • Responder : survival + NYHA class 1 + 10% increase in peak VO2, 3 to 6 months after CRT) • Responder : NYHA class 1 • Responder : LVESV >15% (>10%) • Responder: persistent decrease of NYHA class 1, irrespective of the changes of other parameters. • Non responder (20 to 30%): therapy considered as neutral or not beneficial (no decrease in NYHA class or QOL score ; need for heart transplant; death due to progressive, drug-refractory pump failure).
ECHO in CRT • selection of pts : documentation and quantitation of dyssynergy • guiding the procedure : best position of RV and venous leads • optimizing of AV and VV delays • evaluation of haemodynamic effects : acutely • during follow-up
Acute Effects • Systolic pressure (6 mmHg) • Stroke volume (10 to 30%) • dP/dt max (15 to 35%) • Arterial pulse pressure • End-systolic volume • Functional MR ( ERO and RV by 30%)
Chronic Effects • dP/dt max • LV ejection fraction • Arterial pulse pressure • End-diastolic volume • End-systolic volume : reverse remodeling ( ESV > 15%) • Functional MR (further 10% at rest and • of dynamic component)
