February 1, 2019 updated by: Abbott Medical Devices

Septal Positioning of Ventricular ICD Leads

This clinical trial is a multi center, prospective, randomized, parallel study designed to compare septal to apical ICD lead placement.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

The primary objective of this clinical investigation is to demonstrate that septal positioning of the right ventricular defibrillation lead is not inferior to the apical positioning in terms of safety and efficacy in a population of ICD recipients.
