Clinical trials: Left Ventricular Contractility
Ischemic Congestive Cardiomyopathy, Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Optimizing Left Ventricular Lead To Improve Cardiac Output
The purpose of this study is to determine if optimal lead placement, guided by the largest improvement in aortic flow measured by Doppler will: 1. Improve the way the heart's left ventricle functions 2.
