CRTd Responders Optimization
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Suboptimal optimization of atrio-ventricular (AV) and inter-ventricular (VV) timings could affect the clinical response of CRTd in T2DM patients. Thus, authors hypothesize that automatic sensor guided CRTd optimization could ameliorate clinical outcomes in patients with T2DM. However, authors will evaluate the effects of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRTd) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) optimized via automatic vs. echocardiographic guided approach.Authors will conduct a prospective, multicenter study to recruit, from October 2016 to June 2019, patients with T2DM and heart failure (HF) candidate to receive a CRTd. After CRTd the patients will be optimized via automatic vs. echocardiographic guided approach.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
T2DM patients with CRTd with automatic optimization In this cohort the T2DM patients with CRTd will receive at follow-up an automatic optimization of CRTd. |
|
T2DM patients with CRTd with echocardiographic optimization In this cohort the T2DM patients with CRTd will receive at follow-up an echocardiography guided optimization of CRTd. |
Other: echocardiographic optimization of CRTd
the patients after the implant of CRTd and during the follow-up will receive an echocardiography to optimize the atrio-ventricular and inter-ventricular delay, and to improve the effects of CRTd.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- CRTd responders rate [12 months]
The authors will evaluate the CRTd responders rate in terms of patients that will experience the reduction of NYHA class, improvement of HF symptoms, and improvement of left ventricle ejection fraction.
