Figure 5. Impact of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) on secondary mitral valve regurgitation (MR) during exercise.

Figure 5

In contrast to the resting situation (Figure 4), during exercise immediately after CRT implantation, no decrease in EROA is observed. Only after 3 months when reverse remodeling has occurred, a significant reduction in exercise-induced MR is observed. Adapted with permission from Madaric et al60.
