Cardiac electrical and mechanical synchrony of super-responders to cardiac resynchronization therapy.

CONCLUSIONS: SRs had significant improvements in cardiac electrical and LV mechanical synchrony. Since intrinsic synchrony of SRs was still inferior to BIV-paced rhythm, continued BIV pacing is needed to maintain longstanding and synchronized contraction.
