BACKGROUND: Previous reports suggest that biventricular pacing (BiVp) fused with intrinsic conduction (BiVp-fusion, triple wavefront fusion) is associated with improved resynchronization compared to pure-BiVp in cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). This study aimed to assess the association between acute hemodynamic benefit of CRT and signs of BiVp-fusion by using a novel electrogram (EGM)-based method.
METHODS: In 17 patients undergoing CRT implantation, 28 combinations of atrioventricular (AV) and interventricular (VV) delays were applied while invasively measuring acute hemodynamic response based on maximum rate of left ventricular (LV) pressure rise (LV dP/dtmax ) to assess optimal BiVp settings. BiVp-fusion was noted if farfield signal (caused by first intrinsic ventricular depolarization) was seen prior to right ventricular (RV) pacing (RVp) artifact on integrated bipolar RV EGM, or QRS morphology changed compared to pure-BiVp (short AV-delay) as seen on electrocardiogram (ECG).
RESULTS: Mean optimal RVp timing was at 98 ± 17% of intrinsic right atrial (RA)-RVfarfield (interval from right atrial pace or sense to RV farfield signal) interval, while preactivating the LV at 50 ± 11% of RA-RVsense (interval from right atrial pace or sense to RV sense interval) interval. BiVp-fusion was noted in 16 of 17 (94%) patients on ECG during optimal BiVp. Eight of these patients showed intrinsic farfield signal prior to RVp artifact on RV EGM. In the remaining eight, the RVp was paced just within the RA-RVfarfield interval with a mean of 25 ± 14 ms prior to the onset; therefore, the intrinsic farfield was masked.
CONCLUSION: Optimal hemodynamic BiVp facilitates triple wavefront fusion, by pacing the RV around the onset of intrinsic farfield signal on RV EGM, while preactivating the LV. Aiming at BiVp-fusion could be a target for noninvasive EGM-based CRT device setting optimization.
