Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: In this study, patients providing informed consent will be enrolled responding to the following criteria:;Patients with standard indications for CRT based upon the most recent ESC/EHRA guidelines AND meeting criteria for one of these three categories: 1. Patients with previously implanted pacemakers or ICD*s and meeting standard indications for CRT - referred to as *upgrades* 2. Patients in whom attempted coronary sinus lead implantation for CRT has failed - referred to as *untreated* 3. Patients with previously implanted CRT device, not responding to CRT (no change or worsening of symptom or NYHA functional class after 6 months of treatment confirmed by investigator) - referred to as *non-responders*;Previously implanted or newly implanted CRT*s, pacemakers and ICD devices must provides dual-chamber pacing (RA and RV) if the patient has sinus rhythm, single-chamber pacing (RV) if the patient is in permanent AF
