Abstract

Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) has been shown to increase lifespan [1] and improve haemodynamics in heart failure patients [2]. By performing optimisation of the AV delay, further improvement in the haemodynamic response is achievable [3]. Many different variables both invasive and non-invasive [4,5] have been proposed as targets for maximisation during AV delay optimisation. Non-invasive methods have the advantage of being convenient to acquire, free from the risks associated with invasive measurements, and allow multiple measurements to be made which is necessary to minimise the effect of random noise [6,7].
