Summary

In patients with broad QRS complexes on electrocardiogram (ECG), the delayed electrical activation of the left heart chamber will cause abnormal contraction.This has been shown to be possible to treat by a special pacemaker treatment which includes pacing of the left heart chamber (= CRT treatment).

In this study the researchers will investigate the effect of acute CRT treatment in the early phase after open heart surgery.
