Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator [PDF]

Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, 2012
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) represent a very effective therapy for primary and secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, implantation of endocardial leads using a transvenous approach is associated with significant procedural and long term complications.
