Incidences and Clinical Outcomes of Patients with a Single or Dual Chamber Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator Developing an Indication for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
One-quarter of patients implanted with an ICD who had a narrow QRS duration at the time of implantation developed an indication for CRT during a median follow-up of 6.6 years. Yet, the majority of these patients did not undergo an upgrade to CRT, underscoring potential gaps in CRT utilization.
