Pacing
Brief summary
This study is designed to evaluate the effect of pacing on post-MI patients.
Interventions
DEVICECardiac pacing using any Guidant/Boston Scientific Implantable ICD or CRT-D System and any Guidant/Boston Scientific Intracardiac Lead System
No specific device model is required - any FDA-approved, market-released Guidant/Boston Scientific implantable ICD or CRT-D system and any FDA-approved, market-released Guidant/Boston Scientific intracardiac lead system may be implanted as part of MENDMI.
