Effect of Right Ventricular Lead Position on Defibrillation Threshold

NCT02844127 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2017-09-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine how the position of the right ventricular (RV) coil of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (apex versus septum) affects the defibrillation threshold; specifically, can defibrillator threshold be improved by implantation site selection.

Conditions

  • Ventricular Tachycardia
  • Ventricular Fibrillation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD)

Patients will receive an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD), with the leads implanted in either the apex or the septum as the first location. After defibrillation threshold is determined, the leads position will be changed to the second location and DFT will be determined again.
