Participant Flow

1060 patients were enrolled. 46 patients were not implanted with a CRT-D: screening failures (27), withdrawn by physician/sponsor (15) or withdrew consent (4). 34 implanted patients were not randomized: screening failures (13), withdrawn by physician/sponsor (14), withdrew consent (4), LTFU (2), death (1), not properly randomized (3)
