Brief Summary
The intent of this observational study is to understand the role of non-invasive programmed stimulation (NIPS) to induce substrate based MMVT (Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia) in patients receiving new St. Jude Medical Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) or Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillation (CRT-D) systems.

Eligibility Criteria
The primary study population includes patients who meet all inclusion/exclusion criteria, has had or will have market-approved St. Jude Medical ICD or CRT-D device systems implanted, and has no history of MMVT.
You may qualify if:
- Patient is receiving a new SJM ICD or CRT-D implant system, which has study required programing capabilities and is appropriate for remote monitoring. Patients who have received the ICD or CRT-D up to 30 days prior to enrollment are also eligible.
- Patient consents to have a NIPS/EP study.
- Patient has documented Ejection Fraction (EF) \< 50% and / or Right Ventricular (RV) dysfunction.
- Patient has documented structural cardiomyopathy of any kind \>1 month.
- Patient is between 18 to 75 years of age.
- Patient has been informed of the nature of the study and has agreed to its provisions and provided written informed consent using a form approved by the Institutional Review Board/Ethics Committee (IRB/EC).
You may not qualify if:
- Patient has history of stroke.
- Patient has had ST Segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI); or previous cardiac surgery within 60 days prior to enrollment.
- Patient is pregnant or nursing.
- Patient has chronic New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class IV heart failure.
- Patient has limited life expectancy according to the investigator (less than one year).
- Patient has had a recent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) (\< 60 days) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (\< 30 days).
- Patient is currently participating in an investigational drug or device study Patient is unable or unwilling to cooperate with the study procedures.
- Patient has a prosthetic mitral or aortic valve.
- Patient has mitral or aortic valvular heart disease requiring immediate surgical intervention.
- Patient has Left Ventricular EF \< 15%.
- Patient has had a previous ablation procedure for ventricular tachycardia (VT), excluding remote (\> 3 months) outflow tract tachycardia.
- Patient has previously documented history of severe loss of kidney function or kidney failure.
- Patient has premature ventricular contractions (PVC) or VT induced cardiomyopathy expected to resolve with ablation and will not require an ICD.
- Patient has reversible cause of VT.
