Background Studies have reported that female sex predicts superior cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) response. One theory is that this association is related to smaller female heart size, thus increased relative dyssynchrony at a given QRS duration (QRSd). Our objective was to investigate the mechanisms of sex‐specific CRT response relating to heart size, relative dyssynchrony, cardiomyopathy type, QRS morphology, and other patient characteristics. Methods and Results This is a post hoc analysis of the MORE‐CRT MPP (More Response on Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy with Multipoint Pacing) trial (n=3739, 28% women), with a subgroup analysis of patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathy and left bundle‐branch block (n=1308, 41% women) to control for confounding characteristics. A multivariable analysis examined predictors of response to 6 months of conventional CRT, including sex and relative dyssynchrony, measured by QRSd/left ventricular end‐diastolic volume (LVEDV). Women had a higher CRT response rate than men (70.1% versus 56.8%, P |
