1.7.5 Conclusions Drawn from Studies
The clinical study results support the safety and effectiveness of the Stratos LV CRT-P device.
•The OPTION CRT/ATx clinical study completed and reviewed under P050023 provided a reasonable assurance that bi-ventricular pacing is effective in NYHA class III/IV heart failure patients with a prolonged QRS and a left ventricular ejection fraction <35%. The addition of ICD back-up therapy does not affect the biventricular pacing performance of the device.
•The AVAIL CLS/CRT and Corox (OVID) clinical studies demonstrated the safety of the Stratos LV CRT-P in NYHA class III/IV heart failure patients with a prolonged QRS and a left ventricular ejection fraction <35%.(OVID).
