Why Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy Pacemaker (CRT-P) Is Needed
Recommended for heart failure patients with dyssynchronous ventricular contraction, typically identified by a wide QRS complex on ECG, whose symptoms persist despite optimal medical therapy, but who are not considered at high enough risk of sudden dangerous arrhythmias to need a built-in defibrillator. It aims to resynchronize the heart's contractions to improve pumping efficiency and reduce heart failure symptoms.
Signs You May Need Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy Pacemaker (CRT-P)
Ongoing breathlessness, fatigue, reduced exercise capacity, and fluid retention despite guideline-directed heart failure medications are the main indications. A wide QRS complex found on a routine ECG is often the key trigger for referral to a cardiac electrophysiologist for evaluation.
Types of Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy Pacemaker (CRT-P)
The biventricular pacemaker places leads in the right atrium, right ventricle, and left ventricle to coordinate contractions between the heart's chambers, distinguishing CRT-P from a standard single- or dual-chamber pacemaker. Unlike CRT-D, it does not include defibrillator capability, making it suitable for patients whose main problem is dyssynchrony rather than dangerous arrhythmia risk.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why would I get CRT-P instead of CRT-D?
CRT-P is chosen when resynchronization is needed but the risk of life-threatening arrhythmia is low enough that a defibrillator isn't considered necessary; your cardiologist assesses this based on your heart function and rhythm history.
How long is the procedure and hospital stay?
The implantation itself takes about 2-3 hours, with a hospital stay of 2-3 days for monitoring afterward.
Will the device need to be replaced eventually?
Yes, the battery typically lasts several years and the device is replaced through a minor procedure once it runs low.
Does CRT-P cure heart failure?
No, it doesn't cure heart failure but can significantly improve symptoms and quality of life when combined with ongoing medical therapy.
What activity restrictions will I have?
Most normal activities are fine after recovery, though you'll be advised to avoid certain strong magnetic fields and to inform other doctors and security personnel about your device.
