Lack of acute echocardiographic change with radiofrequency catheter ablation: A prospective study of 158 patients
No full textRelation of Body Mass Index to Long-Term Survival After Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy.
No full textObesity confers a paradoxical survival benefit in patients with heart failure, but this obesity paradox has not been well established in those who have undergone cardiac resynchronization therapy with a defibrillator (CRT-D). We sought to determine the impact of body mass index (BMI) on long-term survival in patients with heart failure after CRT-D. We identified 113 patients implanted with CRT-D at our institution from May 2002 to November 2003. Patients were divided into 3 categories by pre-implant BMI (kg/
