NCT01576562

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to test the function of a subjects implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) function throughout the duration of their heart surgery. ICD function can be altered during some types of heart surgery such as those when a pump (ventricular assist device - VAD) is implanted. The investigators would like to study the mechanism of device and ICD malfunction.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • observational study to assess potential changes that may occur in the RV ICD lead function during LVAD implantation and what mechanism may cause those changes in RV ICD lead function

    RV ICD lead function will be measured throughout LVAD placement , at 1 week post LVAD placement, and 3 months post LVAD placement Description:
