Heart Failure & Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Media Kit

Heart Failure & Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Heart failure is a dysfunction in the pumping action of the heart due to the heart's inability to contract or relax properly. Heart failure is an increasingly ineffective heart, rather than an abrupt failure of the heart. The symptoms of heart failure can be treated using a cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device.
