Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that QuickOpt optimization can be as an alternative method for CRTP/D patients' optimization in clinical practice through the comparison of the improvement differences between the CRTP/D patients with different optimization at 12 months after implantation.The hypothesis is that the Heart Remolding parameter (LVESV) improvement of patients using QuickOpt parameters at 12 months after implant is not inferior (10%) to the patients by Echo optimization。
Detailed description
Clinical studies have demonstrated that the AVTI from QuickOptTM related significantly to the max aorta VTI (AVTI) by Echo, the concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) was so high from 0.96 to 0.99. But up to now, there are no clinical trials to evaluate mid-long term clinical outcome for CRTP/D patients by QuickOptTM and Echo optimization, this is indeed the main purpose of the study; in addition, the clinical impact, the status of arrhythmia and agents of all the enrolled patients, will be evaluated at 1 year after implant.
Interventions
Patients will be optimized using QuickOpt (IEGM) algorithm installed on the Merlin device programmer within 2 weeks and 3 and 6 months after device implantation.

| Percent Change in Left Ventricular End Systolic Volume (LVESV) at 12 Months Compared to Baseline | Baseline and12 months | The primary outcome is the percent change in LVESV at 12 months compared to baseline. This outcome measure is assessed through evaluation of echocardiograms at both baseline and 12 months, with a decrease in the percent change in LVESV at 12 months indicating clinical improvement. The percent change in patients with devices optimized with QuickOpt is compared with that of patients with devices optimized using standard echocardiography techniques to determine if one method of optimization results in a greater change in LVESV. |

Outcome results
Percent Change in Left Ventricular End Systolic Volume (LVESV) at 12 Months Compared to Baseline
The primary outcome is the percent change in LVESV at 12 months compared to baseline. This outcome measure is assessed through evaluation of echocardiograms at both baseline and 12 months, with a decrease in the percent change in LVESV at 12 months indicating clinical improvement. The percent change in patients with devices optimized with QuickOpt is compared with that of patients with devices optimized using standard echocardiography techniques to determine if one method of optimization results in a greater change in LVESV.
Time frame: Baseline and12 months
Population: A total of 108 patients in the QuickOpt group and 118 patients in the Echocardiography group had LVESV measurements at both baseline and 12 months to allow comparison of the percent change in LVESV.
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| QuickOpt Group | Percent Change in Left Ventricular End Systolic Volume (LVESV) at 12 Months Compared to Baseline | -24.69 Percent change in LVESV | Standard Deviation 33.86 |
| Echocardiography Group | Percent Change in Left Ventricular End Systolic Volume (LVESV) at 12 Months Compared to Baseline | -25.13 Percent change in LVESV | Standard Deviation 36.06 |
