Device: Quad Group

Registration Number
NCT01510652
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

This investigation is designed with the hypothesis that using a quadripolar left ventricular lead results in less interventions when dealing with high pacing thresholds and Phrenic Nerve Stimulation (PNS), both at implant and during follow-up, compared to standard bipolar left ventricular leads.

Quad GroupQuad GroupPatients in the Quad group will be implanted with St. Jude Medical (SJM) quadripolar Left Ventricular (LV) lead Quartet

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Lead Performance6 months

Percentage of patients with freedom from event (intra- and post-operative). Intra-operative events were defined as: need to use more than 1 left ventricular lead, need to change lead implant position, use of any device to actively fixate the lead, unsuccessful implant, due to phrenic nerve stimulation, high pacing threshold or lead instability.

Post-operative events were defined as any left ventricular lead related serious adverse device effect and CRT switched off.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Implant DurationTotal duration of the implant procedure reported at the end of the procedure

This measure reports the length (in time) of the implantation procedure. The measurement start at skin incision and stop at skin suture (so called skin-to-skin time) The total implant procedure duration time will be compared between the control and the treatment group.

Percentage of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy RespondersBaseline and 6 months

Percentage of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) responders measured by a decrease of at least 10% of Left Ventricle End-Systolic Volume (LVESV)
