Experimental: Single Arm Defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing Arm |
Device: commercially released subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) and the Investigational S-ICD Adapter.
The S-ICD System is a Subcutaneous (under the skin) Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator for people who are at risk of Sudden Cardiac Arrest. A new electrode configuration will be tested for Defibrillation testing ( DFT). The unit of measure will be in Joules. VF will be induced and the device will deliver a shock at a certain defined energy level as described in the protocol

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Measure defibrillation threshold defibrillation threshold (DFT) of the new shock electrode configuration in Joules [Acute- During the implant procedure]
The primary objective of this acute feasibility study is to measure the defibrillation threshold (DFT) of the new shock electrode configuration with an S-ICD system.The unit of measure will be in Joules. VF will be induced and the device will deliver a shock at a certain defined energy level as described in the protocol
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Conversion succes of the new electrode configuration [Acute- During the implant procedure]
The secondary objective is to assess the conversion success of the new electrode configuration to convert VF. The unit of measure will be in Joules. VF will be induced and the device will deliver a shock at a certain defined energy level as described in the protocol
