Observational study on a new type of implantable defibrillator

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study focuses on the extravascular implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (EV-ICD), which is designed to reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death in high-risk patients. The EV-ICD features a lead positioned in the substernal space, allowing for advanced pacing and defibrillation capabilities. While previous studies have shown that EV-ICDs can be safely implanted and effectively terminate ventricular arrhythmias, this study aims to gather more extensive follow-up data from a broader patient population. The study is observational, meaning it will monitor outcomes without assigning specific interventions.
