Filter by:Cardiac electrical activity is detected on the body surface with conventional electrocardiography involving 12 leads (ECG 12). A limitation of the current ECG technique is that recordings are obtained from only 6 independent precordial leads pairs ; which may miss cardiac potentials from spatially limited regions. More extensive sampling of the body surface may contribute to additional clinical information. The present study investigates the additional sensitivity of ECG using 128 body surface leads (High Density (HD) ECG) in measuring global or regional cardiac activity.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the composite outcome of total mortality and operative complications in patients who do not undergo defibrillation testing to those who do undergo defibrillation testing at the time of initial ICD implantation.
To assess the defibrillation efficacy of a subcutaneous defibrillation system.
