Data are mean (SD); p values shown are for comparisons with baseline, unpaced data.
*p<0.01, **p<0.001 for comparison of sequential and synchronous biventricular pacing for the same LV pacing site.
†ANOVA, NS when compared at all of the interventricular pacing intervals.
‡ANOVA, p<0.0001 when compared at all of the interventricular pacing intervals.
LV, left ventricular; RV, right ventricular; synch, synchronous.
