Study summary

The purpose of this study is to observe the evolution of the CRTD system with left quadripolar lead, in terms of electrical parameters in all pacing configurations and to evaluate the impact on the clinical outcome.

Read the detailed description

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is limited by a high proportion of non-responders.

Pacing activation from proximal area with a left quadripolar lead might improve the depolarization pattern.

To explore the effect of CRT pacing on cardiac activity, the investigators will enroll approximately 180 patients who already underwent CRT-D implantation with a quadripolar LV lead.

After implant, as clinical practice, the device will be programmed with distal LV pacing configuration, after 6 months in patient non-responders to CRT therapy the pacing configuration will be changed (proximal configuration).

After 12 months in patients non-responders will be changed the pacing configuration again, choosing, if it is possible, a multi point pacing (pacing activation from multiple separated left ventricular (LV) sites).

The record gives a start of Mar 2013, a primary completion of Mar 2016 and a completion of May 2016. It does not say whether these dates are actual or estimated.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 31, 2016, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
