About

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of heart rate optimization and guided A-V and V-V delay from color Doppler echocardiography, in subjects affected by heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and CRT-D device wearers who did not respond to device implantation in clinical, electrophysiological, and other terms.
