An exemplary method includes delivering a cardiac resynchronization therapy using an atrio-ventricular delay and an interventricular delay, monitoring patient activity, optimizing the atrio-ventricular delay and the interventricular delay for a plurality of patient activity states to generate a plurality of optimal atrio-ventricular delays and a plurality of optimal interventricular delays, storing the optimal atrio-ventricular delays and the optimal interventricular delays in association with corresponding patient activity states, detecting a change in patient activity, adjusting an atrial pacing rate in response to the detected change in patient activity based at least in part on a heart failure status and setting the atrio-ventricular delay and the interventricular delay, in response to the detected change in patient activity, using a stored optimal atrio-ventricular delay that corresponds to the patient activity and a stored optimal interventricular delay that corresponds to the patient activity. Other exemplary technologies are also disclosed.
