Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • TAV score and number of tachyarrhythmic events.

    The two phases M0 - M12 and M12 - M24 will be examined separately. For each 12 months period the TAV score at its beginning and tachyarrhythmic events in the following 12 months will be assessed. The NPV will be calculated for both phases.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • TAV change

    12 months of follow up

Study Arms (1)

1

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: Ovatio VR 6250 or DR6550

Interventions

The study requires the implantation of locally approved material: * A right ventricular defibrillation lead * In case of use of a dual chamber ICD a right atrial pacing lead * A single chamber or dual chamber ICD manufactured by SORIN Group. At begin of the study this will be OVATIO VR model 6250 and OVATIO DR model 6550. Any new devices of same type manufactured by SORIN Group which will become locally approved during the conduction of the trial can be used in the study. Holter recording will be performed with a market approved recording system allowing high resolution ECG recording compatible with the analysis software for TVar.
