This is a prospective, multi-center non-randomized clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the QuickFlex Micro Model 1258T left ventricular lead in a heart failure patient population. The study will be conducted at a maximum of 20 investigational centers located in the United States and a total of 68 patients will be enrolled.
The investigational left heart lead, QuickFlex Model 1258T, will be implanted with a legally marketed St. Jude Medical cardiac resynchronization therapy implantable cardioverter defibrillator (CRT-D) device. Patients will be followed at Pre-Discharge, 1-Month, 3-Month,and then every 6 months until the end of the study.

Freedom From Left Ventricular Lead-related Complications
A Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was carried out for left ventricular lead related complications through 3 months. Percentage of patients who remained free from complications at 3 months was reported.
Time frame: 3 months
Percentage of Successful Left Ventricular Lead Implants
Left ventricular lead implant success rate was calculated as the total number of patients who had a successful implant of the left ventricular QuickFlex Micro Model 1258T lead divided by the total number of patients who had an attempted implant. A successful implant was defined as the placement of the left ventricular lead in the coronary sinus for the purposes of pacing of the left ventricle with connection to the pulse generator.
Time frame: 3 months
Left Ventricular Bipolar Pacing Capture Threshold (Volts)
The mean left ventricular capture threshold (amount of energy needed to pace the heart) is reported. An overall mean capture threshold of \< 3 volts is required to meet this endpoint.
Time frame: 3 months
