Electromagnetic Interference in Implantable Rhythm Devices - The Indian Scenario
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2002 Implantable rhythm device (IRD) is the generic name for the group of implantable devices used for diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. Devices in this category include cardiac pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators and implantable

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in patients with ICDs and Pacemakers [PDF]
, 2005 Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has unparalleled soft-tissue imaging capabilities. The presence of devices such as pacemakers and implantable cardioverter/defibrillators (ICDs), however, is historically considered a contraindication to MR imaging.

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Previous studies have identified distinct subgroups (phenogroups) of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aims to identify distinct phenotypes in older patients with HFpEF hospitalised for acute heart failure (AHF) and investigate the relationship between subgroups and outcomes ...

Indications of Implantable Defibrillator
Journal of Interventional Cardiology, 1995 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.
