Introduction

• Over a third of moderate to severe heart failure patients (in NYHA Functional Class III or IV) have ventricular dysynchrony, evidenced by a QRS duration 130 ms1

• Associated with• Limited exercise tolerance• Impaired quality of life and functional capacity• Poor left ventricular systolic function2
