Perioperative management of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology
The use of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) has increased significantly in recent years. Consequently, more patients with CIEDs will undergo surgery during their lifetime, and thus the involvement of anesthesiologists in the perioperative ...

Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator Implantation Without Defibrillation Testing

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2017
Defibrillation testing (DT) does not improve shock efficacy or reduce the risk for arrhythmic death in patients undergoing routine transvenous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) placement and is no longer compulsory for left pectoral transvenous ICDs [(1)][1]. The subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD)
