Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>A combination of symptomatic improvement (>= 1 class reduction in specific<br /><br>activity scale or >= 25% improvement in 6 minute walk test distance) and LV<br /><br>remodeling (>= 15% decrease of LV end systolic volume or >= 5% increase­ in LV<br /><br>EF).</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>• Rate of late (12-month) response to CRT<br /><br>• Changes in BNP in correlation to cardiac remodeling<br /><br>• Inter- / intra-ventricular dyssynchrony compared to usual optimization</p><br>
