What is Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy?

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) is a specialized procedure that implants a biventricular pacemaker to help both lower heart chambers beat together in sync. It is designed for patients with heart failure whose ventricles beat out of rhythm making it harder for the heart to pump blood efficiently. CRT treatment improves heart function, reduces heart failure symptoms, and helps patients live a more active and comfortable life. Dr. Waseem Nadaf a trusted Interventional Cardiologist in Bangalore provides expert CRT evaluation and personalized cardiac care for every patient.

How Does Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Work?

Unlike a regular pacemaker with one or two leads, a CRT pacemaker uses three leads — one to each ventricle and one to the right atrium. These leads send electrical signals that coordinate the heart chambers to contract together, improving blood flow and reducing strain on the heart. Patients with conditions like left bundle branch block or advanced heart failure benefit most from this biventricular pacing approach. Dr. Waseem Nadaf recommends CRT after evaluating medication response, lifestyle changes, and advanced cardiac imaging results.

FAQs

Everything you need to know about Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy, heart attacks, and consulting Dr. Waseem Nadaf.

What is Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy and who needs it?

CRT is a biventricular pacemaker procedure for heart failure patients whose ventricles beat out of sync. It is recommended after medications and lifestyle changes have not improved symptoms sufficiently. Dr. Waseem Nadaf provides expert CRT evaluation and treatment in Bangalore.

What is the difference between CRT and ICD treatment?

A CRT pacemaker synchronizes the ventricles to improve heart pumping in heart failure patients. An ICD corrects dangerous fast heart rhythms by delivering a shock. Some patients need a combined CRT-D device that does both — Dr. Waseem Nadaf will recommend the right option based on your condition.

How long does a CRT pacemaker last?

A CRT pacemaker typically lasts several years. Dr. Waseem Nadaf provides regular follow-up monitoring — including remote device checks and in-person visits once or twice a year — to ensure the device functions optimally throughout its life.

Is Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy safe?

Yes — CRT has a high procedural success rate and is safe when performed by an experienced cardiologist. Minor risks include bruising, infection, or rare lead displacement. Dr. Waseem Nadaf takes every precaution to minimize risks at Sri Jayadeva Institute and Altius Hospital, Bangalore.

What happens after CRT treatment in Bangalore?

After CRT, most patients go home within 24 hours. You will need to avoid heavy lifting for about a week and attend a follow-up visit after one month. Dr. Waseem Nadaf provides a personalized heart failure management plan including regular device monitoring and lifestyle guidance for long-term recovery.
