Effect of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) on the Defibrillation Threshold (DFT) Estimates
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy - Defibrillator (CRT-D) for Sudden Cardiac Death. Completed, enrolled 77 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this prospective study is to evaluate the effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) on the defibrillation threshold (DFT) estimates in cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-D) patients. The hypothesis of the study is that defibrillation threshold (DFT) will decrease with 6 months of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).

Timeline
Interventions
* Patients in the study who receive Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy - Defibrillator (CRT-D) are indicated for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT). * Patient undergoes Defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing at implant and at 6 months. Defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing will include 3 ventricular fibrillation (VF) inductions.
