How can we improve the success of cardiac resynchronization therapy implantation?

Introduction: The left ventricular (LV) lead implantation in cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is one of the most important and complex steps, leading to implantation failure in 10–15% of cases. New LV lead implantation techniques are needed to allow better resynchronization and decrease mortality and hospitalizations. Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the snare technique in the LV lead implantation in cases of standard technique failure.
