Decreased no-reflow in patients with anterior myocardial infarction and pre-infarction angina.

abstract：Aims:Although cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is effective in patients with systolic heart failure (HF) and a wide QRS interval, a substantial proportion of patients remain non-responsive. The SonR contractility sensor embedded in the right atrial lead enables individualized automatic optimization of the atriov...
