Abstract
This is the first report describing a shock lead whose functionality can be assessed using TSI measurement, even in cases where shock impedances derived from LVSM exceed 200 Ω. However, the lead exhibited high shock impedance after the DFT test, highlighting the need to monitor it closely.
