IMPROVE RESPONSE is a physician initiated research study. It is a prospective,
non-randomized, multi-center, post-market, U.S. Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) in
heart failure (HF) observational study. The purpose of this clinical study is to test the
hypothesis that market-released CRT devices, which contain the AdaptivCRT (aCRT) algorithm
have an incremental benefit in improving CRT response in a chronic CRT non responder
population with left bundle branch block (LBBB) and normal atrio-ventricular (AV) condition
compared to CRT devices with traditional biventricular pacing delivery methods at generator
replacement.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Normal AV conduction (SAV<220 ms or PAV<270 MS)

- Left Bundle Branch Block (defined as > or = to 140 ms (male) or > or = 130 (female),
QR or rS in leads V1 and V2, and Mid QRS notching or slurring in v 2 of leads V1, V2,
V5, V6 and I and aVL.)

- Patient and/or physician assessment or unchanged or worsened heart failure status at
the time of recommended replacement time (RRT) for previous CRT device.

- Sinus Rhythm at the time of enrollment

Exclusion Criteria:

- Moderate to severe Aortic Stenosis

- Moderate to severe Mitral Regurgitation

- Patient age <18 years old

- AF burden >15%

- Severe pulmonary disease requiring supplemental oxygen use

- ESRD

- System Modification at RRT Generator Changeout

- AdaptivCRT prior to enrollment

- Expected patient longevity < 1 year

- Persistant or chronic atrial fibriliation

- Women who are pregnant or who plan to become pregnant during the clinical trial
