Brief summary

The purpose of this multicenter post-approval study is to evaluate the acute and chronic performance of the QuickFlex® μ 1258T left ventricular (LV) lead.

Detailed description

The primary endpoints of the study are: * Freedom from LV lead-related complications at 5 years * LV bipolar capture threshold of St. Jude Medical's QuickFlex®µ 1258T LV Lead measured at 0.5 ms at 5 years

Participant flow

Recruitment details

Per the clinical investigation protocol, IDE subjects (n=54) who did not consent to roll over into the post approval study (PAS) at sites participating in the post approval study, were included in primary endpoint analyses. Since these subjects are not enrolled into the PAS, they are not reflected in the participant flow.

Left Ventricular Bipolar Pacing Capture Threshold

Mean left ventricular bipolar pacing capture threshold measured at 0.5 ms pulse width at 5 years of follow-up

Time frame: 5 years

Population: Subjects included in this analysis are only those who have left ventricular bipolar pacing capture threshold values reported a the 5-year visit. Of the 843 who completed the 5 year visit, only 774 had analzable data.

Per FDA, data from IDE subjects who did not consent to rollover into the post approval study at sites participating in the post approval study, were included in this analysis (see clinical investigational protocol).

Time frame: 5 years

Population: The analysis population for Primary Endpoint #1 includes newly enrolled and IDE rollover subjects with an attempted implant of the QuickFlex μ LV lead (n=1,930) and subjects from the IDE sites that agreed to participate in the post-approval study, but did not consent to rollover into the post-approval study (n=54), for a total of 1,984 subjects.
