System in patients
with moderate to severe heart failure (NYHA
functional Class III/IV)
Abraham WT, et al. Journal of Cardiac Failure 2000; Vol 6 No. 4.
MIRACLE Study Population
Symptomatic patients with heart failure
18 years of age
NYHA Functional Class III or IV
QRS duration 130 msec
LVEF 35% by echocardiography
LVEDD 55 millimeters (echo measure)
Stable HF medical regimen for 1-month
ACE-I or substitute, if tolerated
-blocker - stable regimen for 3-months

MIRACLE Pivotal Phase
Conclusions
In NYHA Class III and IV heart failure patients with
intraventricular conduction delays who are on stable,
optimal medical therapy, cardiac resynchronization
therapy
is safe and well tolerated
improves quality of life, functional class, and
exercise capacity
improves cardiac structure and function
improves heart failure composite response

Cardiac Resynchronization System
Medtronics InSync system is
indicated for the reduction of
symptoms in patients that meet
the following criteria:

In Summary
Cardiac Resynchronization therapy
offers an adjunctive approach for
treating patients with ventricular
dysynchrony in the setting of moderate
to severe heart failure who are on
optimal, stable medical therapy.
