Study Summary

This trial is designed to study whether left ventricle (LV) only pacing combined with automatic adjustment of AV timing (SyncAV) is more effective than bi-ventricular pacing with multipoint pacing (MPP) and SyncAV in patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), after 6 months of therapy. Approximately 120 subjects will be enrolled at 7 centers in Europe and Canada, and data will be collected at enrollment, CRT implant procedure, hospital pre-discharge, one and 6 months post implant.

Eligible Conditions
  • Heart Failure
  • Left Bundle Branch Block

Timeline

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: LV-only + MPPExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients randomized to the " LV only pacing with MPP and SyncAV" study arm will have CRT programming to left ventricular only pacing with MPP activated. LV1 & LV2 pacing cathodes selected as the maximal spaced electrodes (D1+P4, D2+M3, M2+P4) with pacing delay set to 5 ms and SyncAV offset programmed providing the optimum electrical resynchronization (shortest QRS duration)
Group II: BiV+MPPActive Control1 Intervention
Patients randomized to the "BiV pacing with MPP and SyncAV" study arm will have CRT programming to biventricular pacing with MPP activated. RV-LV pacing delay set to 5 ms, LV1 & LV2 pacing cathodes selected as the maximal spaced electrodes (D1+P4, D2+M3, M2+P4) with pacing delay set to 5 ms and SyncAV offset programmed providing the optimum electrical resynchronization (shortest QRS duration).
