Résumé : | Sympathetic benefits of thoracoscopic cardiac resynchronization therapy (TCRT) in congestive heart failure (CHF) are unknown. We determined cardiac hemodynamics, functional status, and muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) in a group of TCRT patients. We aimed to compare these patients with CHF patients with cardiac asynchrony (ASY) to substantiate the beneficial effects of TCRT. |
