Summary

The purpose of this clinical project is to evaluate the efficacy of the presence of Right Ventricular Apical (RVA) pacing induced ventricular dyssynchrony as a guiding parameter for bi-ventricular pacing in patients with bradycardia and normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The results of this project may provide with the evidence based medicine for guidelines expansion of using Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in patients with Heart Block and normal LVEF (LVEF >45%).
