Traditionally implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) have been implanted transvenously by creating a pouch in the subclavicular area and gaining vascular access to the heart. This approach, ...
The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) is associated with fewer lead-related complications than a transvenous ICD; however, the subcutaneous ICD cannot provide bradycardia and ...

People getting a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) did fine skipping the defibrillation test after all, according to the PRAETORIAN-DFT randomized trial. In people randomized ...
Patients with an indication for an implantable cardioverter–defibrillator but no indication for pacing were randomly assigned to a subcutaneous or a transvenous ICD. At 49 months, the subcutaneous ICD ...
Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) therapies represent a significant advance in the prevention of sudden cardiac death. By positioning both the generator and the lead entirely ...
