Safety and Performance Study of the Reliance 4-Front Lead

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The objective of this study is to gather data to establish the chronic safety, performance and effectiveness of the RELIANCE 4-FRONT™ Active Fixation Defibrillation Leads.

Detailed Description
-----------------
The RELIANCE 4-FRONT Defibrillation Lead Post Market Clinical Follow-Up Study is a prospective, non-randomized, multi-center, single-group, post market clinical study to establish the chronic safety, performance and effectiveness of the RELIANCE 4-FRONT active fixation defibrillation leads. A total of 167 patients (including 10 % attrition) are required to evaluate the Primary Endpoint. Up to 20 Investigational centers located in Europe and Asia Pacific. Lead-related Complication-Free Rate (CFR) from Implant through 3 Months Post-Implant. Lead-related complications associated with the RELIANCE 4-FRONT active fixation lead will count toward this endpoint. Lead-related Complication-Free Rate from 3 Months through 15 Months Post-Implant. Lead-related complications associated with the RELIANCE 4-FRONT active fixation lead will count toward this endpoint. Lead-related Complication-Free Rate from 3 Months through 24 Months Post-Implant Pacing Threshold at 0.5 ms pulse width at 3 Months Post-Implant Sensed Amplitude at 3 Months Post-Implant Pacing Impedance at 3 Months Post-Implant All endpoints will be assessed for the RELIANCE 4-FRONT active fixation lead. Clinic visits will occur at: Enrollment Visit (no later than 30 days prior to implant procedure) Implant Procedure (Day 0; all future follow ups based on this date) Pre-Discharge Clinic Visit (3 - 72 hours post-implant) One Month Clinic Visit (30±7 days) 3 Month Clinic Visit (91 ± 21 days) 6 Month Clinic Visit (180 ± 30 days) 12 Month Clinic Visit (365 ± 45 days) 18 Month Clinic Visit (545± 45 days) 24 Month Clinic Visit (730 ± 45 days) The study will be considered completed after all subjects have completed the 24 Month follow-up and study completion is anticipated in 2015. Primary endpoint completion is anticipated after all subjects have completed the 3 Month follow-up visit. All study required visits will be completed during clinic visits. Hypotheses testing in the RELIANCE 4-FRONT PMCF Study will use standard statistical methodology as specified more in detail in the protocol.
