Devices for cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) deliver energy into 3 output channels. Such a burden can significantly reduce device longevity. Autocapture has been shown to improve pacemaker longevity and safety of right ventricular pacing in clinical studies. The aim of this study was to investigate the application of Autocapture during biventricular pacing (BIV) to decrease the energy cost of CRT.
