Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To quantify the in vivo cyclic curvature in the extravenous region and connector region of Reliance 4-Site and Reliance 4-Front leads for a random sample of patients implanted with ICD and CRT-D systems. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) to correlate in vivo cyclic curvature in the extravenous region and connector region with certain predefined dimensions that locate the defined lead trajectory and locate the pulse generator with respect to anatomical landmarks. 2) to compare in vivo cyclic curvature between the Reliance 4-Site and Reliance 4-Front leads. The stiffness of both leads is different, which could influence curvature | — |
