| Primary | Number of Patients With Abnormal Electrograms During a Lead Issue | Number of patients with at least one instance of abnormal noise during recording. Electrograms will be collected during 24 hours and afterwards abnormalities in the electrograms will be visually identified. | 24 hours | |
| Secondary | Proportion of Patients With Abnormal Electrograms and Lead Failure | Compare the proportion of patients with abnormal electrograms (e.g. high frequency spike) and a high voltage lead failure within 1 month to those patients with abnormal electrograms and no lead failure within 1 month | 1 month | |
| Secondary | Additional Abnormal Electrogram Characteristics | Identify additional characteristics in the Far-field Electrograms that may halp to identify patients at risk of a high voltage lead failure | 1 month |
