Atrioventricular Node Ablation to Enhance Resynchronization Therapy Response in a Patient With Complete Atrioventricular Block
Up to one-third of patients who undergo cardiac resynchronization therapy do not obtain clinical benefit. A systematic approach can identify treatable causes in many nonresponding patients. We present a case of nonresponse to cardiac resynchronization therapy that resolved by ablation of the atriove...
