Study Overview
Brief Summary
Evaluation of three left ventricular pacing polarities effectiveness to narrow phrenic nerve stimulation.
Detailed Description
The primary endpoint of the study aims at demonstrating that the three left ventricular polarities in the Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy-Defibrillator could bypass phrenic nerve stimulation at least in 90% of implants.
Success was defined as an absence of phrenic nerve stimulation (threshold > 7V) or in case of phrenic nerve stimulation occurrence (threshold < 7V), as the resolution of the phrenic nerve stimulation by reprogramming one of the 3 left ventricular pacing polarities available in the device : left ventricular tip- left ventricular ring (bipolar), left ventricular tip- right ventricular ring (pseudo-bipolar) and left ventricular ring-right ventricular coil.
Any occurrence of phrenic nerve stimulation without resolution by reprogramming was considered as a failure.
