Brief Summary:
Exploratory, prospective, interventional, non-randomized single-center research study to compare metrics derived from 2 or 3-D reconstructions of lead movement, bioimpedance and VCG to augmentation of left ventricular contractility (LV dP/dt max) at different pacing configurations in patients undergoing a CRT-implant. Pacing sites and contractility data will be compared to pre operative cardiac ultrasound and MRI metrics.

Arm Intervention/treatment
CRT implantation
Standard CRT indication. Assessment of acute response to CRT.
Procedure: Cardiac resynchronization therapy device implantation



Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. dP\dt max response to different ventricular lead pacing sites [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    To compare metrics derived from 2 or 3-D reconstructions of lead movement to augmentation of left ventricular contractility (LV dP/dt max) at different pacing configurations in patients undergoing a CRT-implant Main objective is to identify the optimal LV pacing site within each patient where the force of contraction during BiV pacing is maximized and to assess the feasibility of a non-invasive sensor to identify this optimal site.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Lead movements and electrical measures [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    Compare metrics derived from 2/3-D reconstructions of lead movement to electrical measures (e.g. Q-LV-timing or VCG) at different pacing configurations in patients undergoing a CRT-implant.

  2. Metrics derived from 2/3-D reconstructions of lead movement and Force-Interval-Relation [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    To compare metrics derived from 2/3-D reconstructions of lead movement to Force-Interval-Relation at different pacing configurations in patients undergoing a CRT-implant.

  3. Metrics derived from 2/3-D reconstructions of lead movement and CardioGuide Motion Map [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    To compare metrics derived from 2/3-D reconstructions of lead movement to CardioGuide Motion Map at different pacing configurations in patients undergoing a CRT-implant.
