| Summary: | Aim. To assess the prevalence and clinical value of various types of left ventricular (LV) myocardial dyssynchrony in patients with systolic chronic heart failure (CHF). Material and methods. In total, 71 patients with Functional Class (FC) II–IV CHF (LV ejection fraction (EF) <35%). The main CHF causes were coronary heart disease, CHD (65%) and non-coronary myocardial pathology (NCMP) which resulted in cardiac dilatation (35%). In 50% of the patients, QRS complex duration was |
