   Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) through biventricular stimulation was first used in the early 1990s as a treatment option for patients with systolic heart failure, intraventricular conduction delay, and other cardiac arrhythmias [1]. CRT, also known as biventricular pacing (BiVP), is an alternative to right ventricular stimulation, which induces dyssynchronous ventricular contraction. In BiVP, three pacing leads are usually placed on the myocardium of the right atrium, the right ventricle, and the left ventricle in the distal cardiac vein. Because there are no standardized loci for lead placement in BiVP, physicians rely on trial and error when inserting pacemaker leads and use electrocardiograms (ECG) to determine the effectiveness of the BiVP lead placement. The ECG measures the electrical conduction, contraction pacing, and projections of the anatomy of the myocardium. Abnormalities in the sinusoidal waves of the ECG reveal problems. Therefore, the ECG can depict a quantitative representation of the effectiveness of biventricular pacing lead placement.

   One variation of a showerhead includes: a body defining a fluid circuit, a first region on a ventral side of the body, and a second region adjacent the first region on the ventral side of the body; a set of hollow cone nozzles distributed within the first region, fluidly coupled to the fluid circuit, and discharging sprays of fluid droplets within a first size range; a set of flat fan nozzles arranged within the second region, fluidly coupled to the fluid circuit, and discharging sprays of fluid droplets within a second size range; and a set of orifices fluidly coupled to the fluid circuit and discharging fluid drops between sprays discharged from the set of hollow cone nozzles and sprays discharged from the flat fan nozzles, fluid drops discharged from the set of orifices within a third size range exceeding the first size range and the second size range.
