Atrioventricular (AV) interval optimization, ensuring the best filling and the abolishment of presystolic mitral regurgitation, is crucial for the efficacy of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The methods proposed to optimize AV delay have many limitations. The maximum left ventricular pressure derivative (LV dP/dt)--an index of cardiac performance--could provide a clue for AV optimization. DP/dt can be calculated by the Doppler curve of mitral regurgitation jet and it is related to micromanometer-derived dP/dt.
