Cardiac resynchronization therapy helps to come out of heart failure

"Cardiac resynchronization therapy, or C.R.T., uses an implantable device much like a pacemaker to send electrical impulses to the right and left ventricles of the heart in order to force them to contract in a more efficient, organized pattern.

“C.R.T. was every bit as big an advance as implantable defibrillators,” Dr. Mower said, adding that when he started testing the treatment on patients in the Netherlands, “It was almost unbelievable how the patients would come out of heart failure.”"

 

Heart failure is a slow and torturous death, much like a death from cancer. In Lithuania, the treatment of later stages is insufficient. The money goes for the golden spoons.
