About this study

The primary purpose of this study is to compare the time, risk and cost savings of 2 patient groups who receive FDA approved left ventricular pacing leads.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to: a) examine the usefulness of placing an epicardial LV lead at the time of open chest surgery in patients who are likely to benefit from a CRT system following their surgery; b) compare differences between patients who receive LV leads using the transvenous approach and those patients who receive LV leads using the epicardial approach; and c) assess the cost effectiveness of placing the LV lead via the transvenous versus the epicardial approaches.

Being tested
Epicardial left ventricular lead placement, Transvenous left ventricular lead implant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Heart Failure, run by University of Kansas at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?
