Shortening of paced QRS duration after electrocardiographic optimization of left ventricular pacing vector in patients treated with Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

Choice of left ventricular pacing vector (LVPV) affects the QRS-duration (QRSd) in patients with Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT). It is not known whether testing all LVPVs reduces QRSd compared to device-based “standard-programming”.
