Vectorcardiographic QRS area as a novel predictor of response to cardiac resynchronization therapy.

• QRS duration and left bundle branch block (LBBB) morphology are used to select patients for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). We investigated whether the area of the QRS complex (QRSAREA) on the 3-dimensional vectorcardiogram (VCG) can improve patient selection.
