Left Bundle Branch Block as a Risk Factor for Progression to Heart Failure
Open accessAbstract
The prevalence of conduction disturbances, particularly left bundle branch block (LBBB), is strongly correlated with age and with the presence of cardiovascular disease. LBBB has been reported to affect approximately 25% of the heart failure (HF) population and it is likely that the deleterious role of such conduction disorders in the progression to HF has been underestimated. The purpose of this article is to review the data from the literature indicating that LBBB may have a causative role, mediated through the resulting intra-ventricular asynchrony, in the deterioration of cardiac function and the development of cardiac remodelling and HF. It also aims to address the potential for future clinical therapies for this conduction disorder.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
