Implantation of Submammary Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2004
Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) are routinely placed in the left pectoral area using a transvenous approach. This approach may result in poor cosmetic outcome and cause psychological problems, especially in younger patients. To avoid this, several alternative implantation techniques have been developed.

The values of defibrillation testing at implantable cardioverter defibrillator implantation

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2012
Since its advent, implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) intra-operative defibrillation testing (DFT) has been a standard practice to confirm its optimal configuration. However, due to advances in device and lead technology, which now facilitate successful device implantation, and due to growing number of ICD primary prevention patients, the need

Implantation of the Automatic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1988
Since February 1980 the automatic implantable cardioverter defibrillator has been implanted in over 1,500 patients. Sudden death rates have been reduced to 2%-4% annually. This report reviews the implantation techniques, their indications, and our clinical experience in 200 patients.
