Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Safety Outcome - Freedom From Major Complications Related to the EV ICD System and/or Procedure at 2 Weeks Post-implant
The endpoint is defined as a subject's first occurrence of a major complication related to the EV ICD System and/or procedure, as determined by an independent Clinical Events Committee (CEC), that occurs on or prior to 2 weeks (14 days) post-implant.
2 weeks (14 days) post-implant
Efficacy Outcome - Defibrillation Efficacy at Implant of the EV ICD System
Each subject will demonstrate a successful defibrillation outcome if either 2 successive induced ventricular fibrillation episodes are terminated by the subject's device delivering a shock at the required energy level, or if one such episode is successfully terminated by the subject's device delivering a shock at a lower energy level. Up to 6 such episodes may be induced to test device efficacy.
At Implant
Study Arms (1)
Implant Attempt
EXPERIMENTALPatients will be implanted with an extravascular ICD and undergo requisite electrical testing.
Interventions
VT/VF induction attempted for defibrillation testing, as well as requisite electrical testing.

You may not qualify if:
- Patient is unwilling or unable to personally provide Informed Consent.
- Patient has indications for bradycardia pacing \[iii\] or Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) \[iv\] (Class I, IIa, or IIb indication).
- Patient with an existing pacemaker, ICD, or CRT device implant or leads.
- Patients with these medical interventions are excluded from participation in the study:
- Prior sternotomy
- Any prior medical condition or procedure that leads to adhesions in the anterior mediastinal space (i.e., prior mediastinal instrumentation, mediastinitis)
- Prior abdominal surgery in the epigastric region
- Planned sternotomy
- Prior chest radiotherapy
- Or any other prior/planned medical intervention not listed that precludes their participation in the opinion of the Investigator.
- Patient has previous pericarditis that:
- Was chronic and recurrent, or
- Resulted in pericardial effusion \[v\], or
- Resulted in pericardial thickening or calcification \[vi\].
- Patients with these medical conditions or anatomies are excluded from participation in the study:
