Intra-operative defibrillation testing and clinical shock efficacy in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators: the NORDIC ICD randomized clinical trial

European Heart Journal, 2015
Aims This trial was designed to test the hypothesis that shock efficacy during follow-up is not impaired in patients implanted without defibrillation (DF) testing during first implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation. Methods and results

Continuous ST‐Monitoring Function of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Detects Silent Ischemia in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Newer implantable cardioverter defibrillators can monitor intracardiac ECGs , but their ability to detect ischemia is unclear. This study investigated the usefulness of implantable cardioverter defibrillators with an ST‐monitoring function in ...

In-body path loss models for implants in heterogeneous human tissues using implantable slot dipole conformal flexible antennas [PDF]

, 2011
A wireless body area network (WBAN) consists of a wireless network with devices placed close to, attached on, or implanted into the human body. Wireless communication within a human body experiences loss in the form of attenuation and absorption.

Advances in Safe, Flexible, and Stretchable Batteries for Wearable Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Unlike previous reviews centered on component‐based deformability, this work highlights safety‐driven design strategies for flexible and stretchable batteries. By integrating material‐level engineering, geometry‐controlled structures, biocompatibility, and self‐protection mechanisms, it establishes a unified framework that connects mechanical ...
