Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 15% increase in cardiac output at the optimal VV interval over baseline cardiac output

    Primary Outcome

    the procedure

Study Arms (1)

Arms

EXPERIMENTAL

Pacing wires used to stimulate ventricles in a synchronous matter

Device: Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT)

Interventions

A CRT device sends small electrical impulses to both lower chambers of the heart to help them beat together in a more synchronized pattern.

Arms
