Effetti della terapia di resincronizzazione cardiaca sul profilo cognitivo, funzionale e psicologico del paziente

Many trials demonstrated the beneficial effects on hospitalizations and mortality of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The purpose of this manuscript was to evaluate CRT effects on functional performance and cognition, two determinants of disability, frailty development and survival. In our study.CRT is associated with higher functional and cognitive profile. These findings let us hypothesize a powerful effect of treatment to slow disability and frailty development in heart failure.
