Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
False Positive Rate6-months

False Positive Rate is the the number of departures from the device's programmed threshold that are unrelated to a heart failure event. The False Positive Rate per patient year of follow up should be less than 1.5.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Sensitivity6-months

Sensitivity is defined as the ability of the algorithm to detect heart failure events. Sensitivity is calculated as the number of heart failure events detected by the algorithm (true positives) divided by the total number of heart failure events (true positives + false positives).
