This is an animated video which explains cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). CRT is a minimally invasive catheter based technique in the management of congestive heart failure patients who have persistent symptoms despite optimal medical therapy. the procedure involves passing a catheter through the groin like a heart catheterization. Finally the patient would have three catheters, one each in the following chambers:
1. Right Atrium
2. Right ventricle
3. Left ventricle lead also has the capacity of an internal defibrillator (AICD). All these catheters are connected to generator which is battery operated and the generator is placed subcutaneously over the chest wall.
