Tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI) Versus Electrocardiography (ECG) Interventricular Pacing Delay Optimization in Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT)

Phase 3

Completed

• Conditions: Heart Failure; Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

• Registration Number: NCT01179997
• Lead Sponsor: Hospital Clinic of Barcelona

Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to compare the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy when the interventricular pacing interval was optimized by Tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI) to response when it was optimized following QRS width criteria.
