In patients with heart failure, reduced cardiac ejection fraction has been associated with impaired cognition. Improving cardiac function may have beneficial effects on cognition; however, no controlled intervention studies have examined this possibility. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is one intervention that has been shown to increase cardiac function. The goals of the current study were to (1) evaluate neuropsychological performance before and 3 months after crt and (2) examine follow-up neuropsychological performance of patients classified on the basis of extent of improved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).
