CRT-D stands for Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy with Defibrillation. Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy (CRT) is designed to treat heart failure by improving the coordination of the heart's contractions. It is often used in individuals with heart failure and specific electrical conduction abnormalities. In addition to providing resynchronisation therapy the device also has a built-in defibrillator to treat dangerous heart rhythms.  

Prior to the Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy (CRT) operation, your cardiac health is thoroughly evaluated. It consists of a range of diagnostic tests, such as electrophysiological and imaging examinations. Subsequently, the CRT or CRT-D device is positioned beneath your skin during the implantation process, and tiny leads are meticulously inserted into your heart. These leads assist in delivering electrical impulses to your heart so that its contractions are synchronised.

The gadget is configured to ensure optimal performance upon implantation. CRT-D is also configured to identify and treat potentially fatal ventricular arrhythmias by giving a shock to restore normal rhythm.

Cardiac resynchronisation therapy is a safe and efficient treatment for improving your heart's pumping efficiency. The choice to have CRT or CRT-D implantation, however, is based on several variables, such as your particular cardiac condition.
