ICD Outcome in Pediatric Cardiomyopathies
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022 Background: Pediatric patients with cardiomyopathies are at risk of malignant arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD). An ICD may prevent SCD. The aim of this study was to evaluate ICD implantation outcomes, and to compare transvenous and subcutaneous
