Take away messages
• ECG is mandatory during follow-up of patients with cardiac resynchronization
• ECG recording in the different pacing configuration s is mandatory to diagnose loss of capture at follow-up
• ECG should be controlled before echocardiographic o ptimization of AV delays
• VV delay programming impacts the ECG pattern but is difficult
• Correct functioning of the atrial lead is mandatory during biventricular pacing
In ICD patients, analysis of systematic remotely tr ansmitted EGMs is as important as interpretation of tachycardia episodes
