The study is a non-randomized, two-part, open label, prospective single-site, single arm, safety and performance study. The study is designed to collect acute and long-term clinical data and user reported outcome data from using the PreSens-Catheter and PACER Software during cardiac catheterization and Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) device implantation procedures. Subjects with indication for arterial catheterization and CRT will be included.
The study consists of two parts: 1. Initial safety assessment: at least 5 patients undergoing coronary angiography or left heart catheterization and 5 patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy device implantation to demonstrate acute safety and performance of the PreSens-Catheter and the PACER Software for Td measurements. 2. Safety and performance assessment: At least 35 patients with an indication for CRT implantation according to standard of care to demonstrate acute safety and performance of using the PreSens-Catheter and the PACER Software to measure Td and detect Synergy and Dyssynergy from multisite stimulation, and its utility to deliver measurements for the discrimination of two clinical cardiac reverse volumetric remodeling phenotypes based on Synergy and Dyssynergy in the targeted population. Subjects will be followed for the duration of the procedure up to 24 hours for any serious adverse events, and subjects receiving a CRT device will be followed for 30 days follow-up for procedure or device-related events and for up to 6 months for cardiac volumetric remodeling phenotyping. Clinical outcomes: Clinical outcome will be measured as Safety for the placement of the PreSens-Catheter, safety for the PreSens-Catheter and PACER Software combined for the measurement of Td and detection of Synergy/ Dyssynergy from stimulation, and diagnostic/ predictive performance of the PreSens-Catheter and PACER Software with the measurement of end-systolic volume at 6-months follow-up.

Primary Safety Outcome (PreSens-Catheter):
The primary safety outcome is the incidence of procedure or device-related Serious Adverse Events (SAEs and SADEs) on the day of the procedure
Time frame: 24 hours
Primary Safety Outcome Measures (PreSens-Catheter and PACER Software):
The primary safety outcome of the PreSens-Catheter and PACER Software is the incidence of false positive readings of Synergy resulting from multisite stimulation from PreSens-Catheter in patients with narrow QRS and false negative readings (Dyssynergy) compared to the resulting reading from pacing with the CRT device.
Time frame: 4 hours
Primary Performance Outcome Measures (PreSens-Catheter and PACER Software):
Detection of Synergy and Dyssynergy to phenotype patients for the prediction of reverse volumetric remodeling response after 6 months of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy. Outcome is based on the change in End-Systolic Volume (ESV) from baseline to 6 months follow-up in the respective phenotypes. The study is powered to detect a ΔESV of 30% points difference between the Synergy and Dyssynergy characterized patients after 6 months of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy.
Time frame: 6 months
Safety Outcome Measures (PreSens-Catheter):
Percentage of subjects experiencing a composite safety event. The composite safety outcome (CSO) defined as the incidence of events which are device- or procedure-related
Time frame: 30 days
Performance Outcome Measures (PreSens-Catheter)
a) The proportion of subjects that achieve Acute Procedural Success (APS) defined as the correct insertion and placement of the PreSens-Catheter within the heart with confirmed readings/ recordings from the catheter and imaged with fluoroscopy in two planes, in at least one of the defined positions depending on available access sheets (on an intention-to-treat basis). b) The proportion of subjects that had the PreSens-Catheter placed in the left heart with the intention to place the catheter with the distal electrodes in three different positions (anterior, lateral, posterior); number of positions achieved in each patient. c) Product performance evaluated on a 5-point semi-quantitative scale ("strongly disagree" to "strongly agree") \[Time Frame: During Procedure\]. d) Acute product performance will be quantitatively and qualitatively evaluated during the procedure.

Performance Outcome Measures (PreSens-Catheter and PACER Software):
The proportion of subjects that achieve Acute Procedural Success (APS) defined as successful placement of the PreSens-Catheter in the heart and measurement of Td (time to peak exponential pressure rise (dP/dt)) with the PACER Software; with stimulation from the PreSens-Catheter and from the CRT (with the rate of agreement) with the PreSens-Catheter placed in at least two out of three defined positions. (CRT recipients only).
