Objective The best modality to assess diastolic function in CRT-candidates is an object of debate and the relationship between diastolic function, CRT-response and survival are not clearly understood. Purpose of the study: to assess diastolic patterns in patients undergoing CRT according to the 2016 recommendations of the American Society of Echocardiography/European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging and to evaluate the prognostic value of diastolic dysfunction (DD) in CRT candidates. Methods 193 patients (age: 67 ± 11 years, QRS width: 167 ± 21 ms) were included in this multicentre prospective study. Patients were stratified according to DD grades (grade I to III). CRT-response was defined as a reduction of left ventricular (LV) end-systolic volume >15% at 6-month follow-up (FU). The primary endpoint was defined as a composite of heart transplantation, LV assisted device implantation or all-cause death during FU. Results During FU, 132 (68%) patients were CRT-responders. CRT delivery was associated with diastolic function degradation in non-responders. Grade I DD was able to predict CRT-response with a sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 70%, 65%, and 63%, respectively. After a median period of 35 months, the primary endpoint occurred in 29 (15%) patients. Grade I DD was associated with a better outcome [HR 0.26 95% CI: (0.10-0.66)], independently from ischemic cardiomyopathy, LV dyssynchrony and CRT-response (Table 1). Non-responders with grade II or grade III DD had the worse prognosis (HR 4.36, 95%CI: 2.10-9.06) Figure 1. Conclusions Grade I DD is associated with LV remodelling after CRT and is an independent predictor of prognosis in CRT candidates. Abstract Figure.
