A multifilamented electrode in the middle cardiac vein reduces energy requirements for defibrillation in the pig

OBJECTIVE To compare the defibrillation efficacy of a novel lead system placed in the middle cardiac vein with a conventional non-thoracotomy lead system. METHODS In eight pigs (weighing 35–71 kg), an electrode was advanced transvenously to the right ventricular apex (RV), with the proximal electrod...
