T-Wave Oversensing with Contemporary Implantable Cardioverter–Defibrillators

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Background: Implantable cardioverter–defibrillators (ICDs) need to reliably detect ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) while avoiding T-wave oversensing (TWOS), which is associated with a risk of inappropriate therapies.

European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) international consensus document on how to prevent, diagnose, and treat cardiac implantable electronic device infections-endorsed by the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS), the Asia Pacific Heart Rhythm Society (APHRS), the Latin American Heart Rhythm Society (LAHRS)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2019
Pacemakers, implantable cardiac defibrillators, and cardiac resynchronization therapy devices are potentially life-saving treatments for a number of cardiac conditions, but are not without risk.

Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator Implantation Without Defibrillation Testing

open access: yesJournal 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)

Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator utilization [PDF]

open access: yesEuropace, 2011
Following the recent publication of our article1 concerning the European paradox with regard to implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) device utilization in Europe (markedly lower device utilization in Europe compared with the USA), which updated several previous reports,2,3 …

EuroEco (European Health Economic Trial on Home Monitoring in ICD Patients): a provider perspective in five European countries on costs and net financial impact of follow-up with or without remote monitoring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Aim: Remote follow-up (FU) of implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs) allows for fewer in-office visits in combination with earlier detection of relevant findings. Its implementation requires investment and reorganization of care. Providers (physicians

Single-chamber Versus Dual-chamber Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators: Do We Need Physiologic Pacing in The Course? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background: Many patients with ICD receive different antiarrhythmic drugs (e.g. sotalol, amiodarone, β-blockers) because of ventricular or atrial tachycardias.

Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2014
For nearly 3 decades, the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) has been available to patients who survived life-threatening rapid heart rhythms or are at risk of experiencing them. The ICD comprises a device generator coupled with a defibrillation lead.
