Dynamic programming of atrioventricular delay improves electrical synchrony in a multicenter cardiac resynchronization therapy study

Patient-specific programming of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is often neglected, despite significant non-response rates. The device-based SyncAV CRT algorithm dynamically adjusts atrioventricular delays (AVD) to the intrinsic AV interval, reduced by a programmable offset, to accommodate each patient ’s changing needs.
