Abstract
A 48-year-old man who was previously a responder to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) presented with worsening of heart failure and reduction in the percentage biventricular (BiV) pacing. Device interrogation revealed T-wave oversensing that was eliminated by optimizing the interventricular (VV) delay. Compared to simultaneous BiV pacing, both sequential left ventricle-right ventricle (LV-RV) and univentricular LV pacing shortened the QTc, T peak-end intervals and reduced the T wave amplitude. Modification of VV delays can result in changes in wavefront of activation and thereby affect ventricular repolarization patterns.
