CardioInsight1: CardioInsight 1 RBBB
Study Details
Study Description
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.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Left Ventricle (LV) end systolic volume reduction [6 months]
The responder rate of greater than 10% of LV end systolic volume reduction measured by echocardiogram
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Electrical dyssynchrony index [During procedure]
The acute electrical dyssynchrony indices (the standard deviation of activation times throughout the epicardium) of different methods of CRT delivery. Lower indicate larger improvement.
- Hemodynamic response monitoring [During procedure]
monitor the difference in hemodynamic responses of different methods of CRT delivery method. The hemodynamic response will be maximal dp/dt as measured by pressure wire introduced into the left ventricle during the procedure.
- Procedure outcome with optimal CRT delivery [During procedure]
Procedure outcome measured by procedure duration and implantation success rate of the optimal CRT delivery method as determined by the best improvement in electrical dyssynchrony indices.
- Cine images and chest X ray [6 months]
Cine images (PA, LAO 300, RAO 300) and Chest X ray (PA view) of patients will be obtained for evaluation of changes in disease
- Echocardiogram parameter: left ventricular systolic and diastolic volume [6 months]
left ventricular systolic and diastolic volume at baseline, 3 months and 6 months : , left ventricular ejection fraction, degree of mitral regurgitation, strain imaging will be aggregated to arrive at an overall change in echocardiogram parameters as together they represent integrated heart function collectively, as reflected by the listed echocardiogram parameters.
- Multi-dimensional Quality of life changes [6 months]

- Device set-up parameter :defibrillation threshold [6 months]
Device parameters including defibrillation threshold at implant and 6 months follow-up.
- Post-operation Complication rate [6 months]

- Device set-up parameter :defibrillation sensitivity [6 months]
Device set-up parameter :defibrillation sensitivity at implant and 6 months follow-up
- Device set-up parameter: lead impedance of pacing leads [6 months]
