Failed Maximal Defibrillation Threshold Testing in the Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator

Cardiology, 2016
The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) registry included very few patients with a body mass index (BMI) greater than 40. We present a case of a 40-year-old male with a BMI of 44 and ejection fraction of 25% who underwent S-ICD implantation for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death in the setting of a nonischemic ...

Role of Defibrillation Threshold Testing in the Contemporary Defibrillator Patient Population

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2013
Role of Defibrillation Threshold Testing.  Introduction: Defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing has been performed to prove functionality of the implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). Over the past years it has become increasingly controversial because of possible morbidity and mortality.
