Program the ICD/CRT-D to appropriately treat the patient’s

during the lead system evaluation should be helpful in tailoring
the various parameters of the ICD/CRT-D to treat each individual
patient. The detection and therapy status of the ICD/CRT-D may
be activated for testing purposes once all of the lead connectors
have been securely fastened in the device header ports. The
physician shall be made aware of the program that is in effect
after the patient leaves the office, by viewing the parameters
displayed on the programmer screen after the device has been
programmed and interrogated.
