Figure 1 The difference in QRS duration obtained with septal and apical pacing ({Delta}xyz [ms]; see methods) is plotted against the difference in the area under the curve of the phase distribution histogram as obtained with septal and apical pacing ({Delta}AuC; n = 14). Full line = regression line; dotted line = 95% confidence limit; r = regression coefficient; p = level of significance.

Figure 2 The difference in QRS duration ({Delta}xyz) is plotted against the difference in ejection fraction as obtained with septal and apical pacing ({Delta}EF [%]; n = 14). Abbreviations as in Figure 1.

Figure 3 The difference in QRS duration ({Delta}xyz) is plotted against the difference in the ejected counts as obtained with septal and apical pacing ({Delta} EC [%]; n = 14). Abbreviations as in Figure 1.
