Abstract
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an
indispensable mode of treatment for the increasing
number of patients with severe systolic heart failure
.(1) A new CRT-score was recently generated in
Alexandria University to predict responders to
CRT.(2) The CRT score includes QRS duration ≥150
ms, LBBB morphology ,non-ischemic
cardiomyopathy (ICM), sinus rhythm ,preserved RV
function with TAPSE ≥15 mm, female gender, the
absence of history of renal disease and significant
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Each
parameter was assigned to a single point except QRS
duration ≥150 ms was assigned to 2 points of
maximum 9 points.
