Asirvatham Case 1 Question

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this workshop, Sam Asirvadam discusses issues with device cases, radiology, electrocardiographic correlation, and troubleshooting. He presents an ECG tracing from a patient with a CRT device who has not shown any clinical improvement. The question is raised as to why the patient is a non-responder. Possible explanations include PVCs, lack of atrium-ventricular synchrony, failure to capture on the left ventricular lead, a potential need for a left ventricular lead offset, or a combination of these factors.
