"The typical indication of cardiac resynchronisation therapy is the improvement of cardiac haemodynamics and symptoms in heart failure with left ventricular dysfunction to prevent hospitalisation and reduce mortality, especially in the setting of left bundle branch block (LBBB) and/or cardiac dyssynchrony 1-5. According to the European Society of Cardiology (ESC Guidelines 2021), this includes symptomatic patients (NYHA class II, III and IV) with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (LVEF"
