MULTIPOINT™ PACING
Benefits of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
CRT benefits heart failure patients with a wide QRS and
low
LVEF
Compared to RV (right ventricular) only pacing, CRT:
Improves EF, NYHA class and 6 MWT results1
Decreases hospitalizations1,4
Reduces the risk of death2
Compared to optimal pharmacological therapy, CRT:
Reduces rates of all-cause, cardiac, and HF hospitalization3
Quadripolar CRT Systems have represented a new opportunity
to
improve CRT implant success and avoid common CRT complications
such as high thresholds and phrenic nerve stimulation 5

This study evaluated the effect of MultiPoint™ Pacing (MPP™) on the left ventricular (LV) activation
pattern and hemodynamics in the same patient population.
A total of 10 patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy
underwent an acute pacing protocol that included 2 biventricular (BiV) and up to 9 MPP technology
interventions.
Results
Compared with BiV, MPP technology significantly increased
LV dP/dtmax (30 ±13% vs. 25 ±11%, P = 0.041); reduced
QRS duration (22 ±11% vs. 11 ±11%, P = 0.01) and
MultiPoint
Pacing
decreased total endocardial activation time (25 ±15% vs. 10
± 20%, P= 0.01).
MPP technology also captured significantly greater LV mass during the first 25 ms and first 50s of
pacing, suggesting faster wavefront propagation throughout the LV
MPP technology improved acute hemodynamic parameters,
QRS duration and activation patterns in comparison to BiV.

CHRONIC CLINICAL EVIDENCE
International Studies
MultiPoint™ Pacing 12-month
follow-up
International
Methods
44 consecutive patients were randomized to receive pressure-volume (PV) loop optimized
MPP™ technology or Conventional CRT (CONV) at a single center in Italy.
The primary endpoint was the change in end systolic volume (ESV) and ejection fraction
(EF) from baseline to 12 months in the MPP technology group vs. the CONV group.
Response to CRT was defined as alive status and ≥
15% decrease in ESV relative to the baseline.
Results
ESV and EF increase relative to baseline were significantly greater with MPP technology
than with CONV (ESV: median –25% vs. median –18%, P =
0.03; EF: median +15% vs. median +5%, P < 0.001).
At 12 months, 76% (16/21) of patients in MPP
technology group were classified as CRT responders
compared with 57% (12/21) in the BiV group.
The CRT response rate in the MPP technology group remained consistent at 76% from 3
month to 12-month follow-up.
PV loop-guided MPP technology resulted in greater LV reverse remodeling and increased LV
function at 12 months compared with similarly optimized
Conventional CRT.

Benefits of Switching
from
Conventional
CRT
to
MPP™ Technology
Methods
The aim of this study was to evaluate if patients
receiving conventional CRT (CONV) would receive additional benefit by switching CRT
programming to MPP technology (n = 8)
Patients implanted with a CRT 12 months post implant
had their CRT programming switched to MPP technology after echo and NYHA class
assessment and classified as responders (6/8) or non-responders (2/8) based on echo
comparison to baseline.
Responder was defined as ESV ≥15% relative to
baseline.
Results
The two non-responders to CONV became responde
rs
with MPP technology with reduction in ESV and improvement in EF relative to the 12
month exam
The remaining 6 patients classified as responders to
CONV also experienced additional reduction in ESV
and improvements in EF
The study results suggest that activating MPP
technology may be a potential strategy to convert non- responders to
responders or further improve response in patients already responding to
conventional therapy
