  1. In this table the representation of study outcomes, as catheter dislodgments (A), phrenic nerve stimulation events (B), re-intervention for catheter dislodgments (C), hospital admissions for heart failure worsening (D), atrial fibrillation events (E), all cause deaths (F), and cardiac deaths (G), and multivariate predictive factors
  2. We have used for statistical analysis, a 95% interval of confidence (IC), and a significant statistical p value, p < 0.05. The symbol * was marking factor with a p value <0.05. To test the final statistical used model, we have performed the Hosmer and Lemeshow test, with a χ² = 2.775, and a p value <0.05
  3. NYHA 3 New York Heart Association third class, LVEF left ventricle ejection fraction, LV left ventricle
