Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary objectives of this study is to characterize the electrical performance of a dual zone, quadpolar lead design in order to specify the electrode placement location on the spiral fixation of the lead body | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The Secundary objectives of this study are to: 1. Evaluate the anatomic fit of the short and long straight tip leads 2. Measure the phrenic nerve stimulation threshold if it occurs during the pacing threshold testing and evaluate ability to mitigate PNS by switching pacing zones/locations 3. Evaluate the ability of the leads to be delivered and placed to the selected sites within the coronary branch veins using the standard CRT delivery tools and over-the-wire technique | — |
