Abstract
We read the article ‘Potential pro-arrhythmic effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy’ by Tayeh et al. with great interest [1]. The authors showed a significant decrease in QRS duration but significant prolongation in corrected QT interval after bi-ventricular pacing (CRT). This is a well-designed study but some comments therein require discussion.
