More Options Available With a Quadripolar Left Ventricular (LV) Lead pRovidE In-clinic Solutions to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) Challenges

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.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients are indicated for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy with Defibrillation backup device (CRT-D) implantation, as per current international certified guidelines
• Patients age is 18 years or greater
• Patients must indicate their understanding of the study and willingness to participate by signing the appropriate informed consent form
• Patients must be willing and able to comply with all study requirements

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients with a life expectancy <12 months.

• Patients who are or may potentially be pregnant.

• Patient has suffered any of the following in the 4 weeks prior to enrolment:

  • Myocardial Infarction (MI)
  • Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)
  • Unstable Angina Pectoris

• Patient has primary valvular disease which has not been corrected
