Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To document the performance of the Guidant ENDOTAK EZ and the RELIANCE defibrillation leads over 5 years.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

There are few prospective long term follow-up studies on implanted cardiac device (pacemaker/implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD)) survivability. This study will evaluate the long term performance (5 years) of the transvenous defibrillation leads (ENDOTAK ENDURANCE EZ and teh ENDOTAK RELIANCE. Data will be collected at implant, 1 and 6 months, 1,3 and 5 years.
