[Coronary sinus mapping of the optimal LV electrode position].
Herzschrittmachertherapie & Elektrophysiologie 2018 September
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established pillar of treatment for patients with chronic heart failure. However, 30% of patients do not respond adequately to this type of therapy. One possible reason for this is a nonoptimal left ventricular stimulation site. This review focuses on possibilities of visualization of the coronary vein anatomy and its role in the determination of the electrical and mechanical dyssynchrony to optimize the therapeutic success of the resynchronization therapy. In addition, the clinical implication and the perspectives of a dedicated mapping of the coronary vein are discussed. Finally, a brief outlook on current and future technologies for improving this form of therapy is given.
