    Abstract: A method for identifying reversible cardiac dyssynchrony (RCD) of a patient and treating the RCD measures an event relating to a rapid increase in the rate of pressure increase within the left ventricle. The method calculates a first time delay between the event and a first reference time. If the first time delay is longer than a set fraction of electrical activation of the heart, then the presence of cardiac dyssynchrony in the patient is identified. Pacing is applied to the heart, and a second time delay between the event following pacing and a second reference time following pacing is calculated. If the second time delay is shorter than the first time delay, the method identifies a shortening of a delay to onset of myocardial synergy, OoS, thereby identifying the presence of RCD in the patient. Treatment of the RCD is performed.
