Ventriculoarterial coupling (VAC) is a composite parameter, defined as the ratio of arterial elastance (Ea) to end systolic left ventricular elastance (Ees). Thus: VAC=Ea/Ees . It is a fundamental property of the cardiovascular system, integrating and assessing the interaction of all individual parameters of the ventricle (pump) and the arterial tree (afterload). Furthermore, VAC may assess both whether SW produced is maximal for a given contractility of the left ventricle (condition for maximization: VAC=1) and whether mechanical efficiency of the ventricle is optimal (optimization condition: VAC=0.5-0.7). Consequently, simultaneous optimization is not possible, and the cardiovascular system operates either at maximal output (as in healthy individuals at rest) or at optimal efficiency (healthy individuals at exercise). Multi-site pacing (MSP) of the left ventricle is a recently introduced technique with excellent studies' findings concerning echocardiographic parameters of ventricular function. Recently, the MultiPoint Pacing (MPP) IDE study showed that a specific choice of electrical dipole for the first left ventricular pulse and a close to simultaneous application of the two left ventricular pulses achieves a very high percent of clinical response (87%), with excellent patient safety. Subsequent studies confirmed these findings, reporting even higher NYHA response rates (95% vs 78% for conventional cardiac resynchronization therapy - CRT).
