Indications of Implantable Defibrillator
Implantable cardioverter defibrillators are devices capable of detecting and terminating ventricular tachycardias or fibrillations. They are utilized in the treatment of severe ventricular tachyarrhythmias, and their efficacy in the prevention of sudden death is demonstrated.
