About this trial
Conduction system pacing vs biventricular resynchronization therapy in systolic dysfunction and wide QRS: mortality, heart failure hospitalization or cardiac transplant (CONSYST-CRT II trial).
Superiority trial that aims to study the composite endpoint consisting of all-cause mortality, cardiac transplant or heart failure hospitalization at 12-month follow-up.
