Elevated B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Level as a Residual Risk Factor for Ventricular Arrhythmias Among Patients Undergoing Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy With Improved Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction
The VA risk is reduced with improved LVEF after CRT but not with high BNP levels. The post-BNP level after CRT implantation is a useful marker for predicting VA in patients with improved LVEF.
