Summary

Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a multi factorial disease, affecting clinical outcomes in failing heart (HF) patients treated by Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy with a defibrillator (CRT-d).

Methods: One hundred and ninety five T2DM patients will receive a CRT-d treatment. Randomly the study population will receive a CRT-d via multipolar left ventricle (LV) lead pacing (n 99 as Multipolar group), v/s a CRT-d via bipolar LV pacing (n 96, as Bipolar group). These patients will be followed by clinical, and instrumental assessment, and telemetric device control at follow up. Study design will be to evaluate, in failing heart T2DM patients, cardiac deaths, all cause deaths, arrhythmic events, CRT-d responders rate, hospitalizations for HF worsening, phrenic nerve stimulation (PNS), and LV catheter dislodgment events (and re-intervention for LV catheter re-positioning), comparing multipolar CRT-d v/s bipolar CRT-d group of patients at follow up.
