Fully Automatable, Reproducible, Noninvasive Simple Plethysmographic Optimization: Proof of Concept and Potential for Implantability.

Background: Hemodynamic optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) can be achieved reproducibly and-with bulky, nonimplantable equipment-noninvasively. We explored whether a simple photoplethysmogram signal might be used instead. Method: Twenty patients (age 65 ± 12) with CRT underwent...
