Abstract
We found an increasing trend in the incidence of post CRT tamponade among hospitalized patients between 2007 and 2014. Female gender and coagulation disorder were associated with the development of tamponade among recipients of CRT. Risk stratification of patients who are undergoing CRT is crucial to improving outcome in CRT implantation.
