Ranolazine Effects on Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation Severity in Patients With Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

The purpose of this study is to find out whether mitral regurgitation (or a leaky heart valve) caused by ischemic heart disease (decreased blood flow to heart muscle) will improve after administration of ranolazine.
