Pascale Paola Gargiulo Federica Marzano Pasquale Perrone‐Filardi Stefania Paolillo Santo Dellegrottaglie Echocardiography ABSTRACT Background Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a standard treatment for patients with heart failure and electrical dyssynchrony. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is the gold standard for assessing left ventricular (LV) function. However, the feasibility of using CMR with active CRT is still uncertain. Purpose To assess the feasibility of a CRT “off‐on” protocol during CMR and measure the acute effects of CRT interruption on LV function. Methods Patients underwent CMR before (pre‐CRT) and 6 months after (post‐CRT) an MR‐conditional CRT defibrillator implantation. The post‐CRT scan included two complete sets of cine images, one with inactive (post‐CRT OFF ) and one with active CRT (post‐CRT ON ), maintaining a continuous connection between device and programmer. Results Out of 29 enrolled patients, 8 (28%) had complete and analyzable post‐CRT data. Unsuccessful procedures were attributed to connection problems between the CRT device and the programmer ( n = 10), poor image quality ( n = 7), and lack of patient cooperation ( n = 4). LV ejection fraction significantly increased between pre‐CRT scan (28.1%) and both post‐CRT OFF (37.9%; p = 0.046) and post‐CRT ON CMR (35.0%; p = 0.037), with a nonstatistically significant trend toward decreased LV volumes. No adverse events or significant changes in device electrical parameters (including battery level) were detected during the post‐CMR scan period. Conclusion A CRT “off‐on” protocol during CMR studies can be safely executed in patients with an MR‐conditional CRT defibrillator. However, technical improvements are needed to facilitate high‐quality scans during active CRT. Favorable changes in LV function induced by CRT remodeling were not acutely reversed with the interruption of electrical therapy. 10.1111/echo.70003 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
