Cardiomyopathies, Congestive Heart Failure
Conditions
Brief summary
LV pacing at various sites with recording of ECG and subsequent signal analysis at different sites.
Detailed description
During routine cardiac resynchronization pacemaker or implantable defibrillator (ICD) implantation (including de-novo and upgrade from standard device, additional pacing within 3 different coronary veins will be performed in combination with a previously implanted right ventricular pacing or ICD lead. The resulting electrocardiogram signal will be analyzed afterwards. A time-frequency analysis (TFA) of several ECG leads at each paced site will be performed and compared. The results of the TFA analysis will not be used to select pacing lead location in this study. The patient will then receive the left ventricular pacing lead in the standard manner.
Interventions
The apical, mid ventricular and basal sites within the anterior,posterior and lateral coronary sinus branch veins will be paced.

| Coronary Sinus Branch Pacing After cannulation, pacing impulses will be delivered via a Biotronik Vision Guidewire to 3 sites (apical, mid ventricular, and basal) within each coronary sinus branch receiving venous blood from the anterior, lateral and posterior regions of the ventricle.
ECG signals will be saved digitally for analysis
