<p>[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4072904"]My brother and I both have defibrillators with Riata leads. I actually started out with a Medtronic lead that, after 1 year, broke and had exposed wires which had to be removed with a laser. I would much rather have had some exposed inner wires than wires that were broken that could possibly punch a hole.. Plus... as it was explained to me, the Riata has redundant safety backups. The exposed wires, should an outer insulation breach occur, has more insulation that is a lot more durable. I don't believe that the Medtronic lead had this feature....according to my doctor. That gives me a peace of mind.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
