Overview
Brief Summary
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established therapy for symptomatic heart failure patients. However, there are still 30 to 40% of studied patients being nonresponder to CRT. The plausible reasons of lack of effect of CRT in these patients include relative less baseline electrical dyssynchrony. The aim of our study is to investigate whether there is an optimal configuration of CRT delivery that varies between patients with different pattern of activation delay.
