Summary

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) involves pacing the left and right side of the heart in order to improve the coordination of the contraction in patients with heart failure. Current selection criteria incorporate the severity of the symptoms, the mechanical function of the heart and the time it takes the electrical stimulation to spread over the left ventricle (as assessed on the standard 12 lead electrocardiogram-ECG). Unfortunately these criteria only seem to select approximately 70% of the patients who might respond to this invasive therapy. Body surface ECG mapping is a new technique that assesses the electrical activation of the heart in more detail than the standard ECG. This study aims to determine whether this new technology may aid current selection criteria in predicting response to CRT.
