The implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator [PDF]
Clinical Cardiology, 2000 AbstractVentricular arrhythmias remain a major cause of cardiovascular mortality. Therapy for serious ventricular arrhythmias has evolved over the past decade, from treatment primarily with antiarrhythmic drugs to implanted devices. The implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) is the best therapy for patients who have experienced an episode of ...

Personalized Deep Learning for Ventricular Arrhythmias Detection on Medical IoT Systems [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias (VA) are the leading cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD), which is the most significant cause of natural death in the US. The implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is a small device implanted to patients under high risk of SCD as a preventive treatment.

Towards the selection of patients requiring ICD implantation by automatic classification from Holter monitoring indices [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 The purpose of this study is to optimize the selection of prophylactic cardioverter defibrillator implantation candidates. Currently, the main criterion for implantation is a low Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) whose specificity is relatively poor. We designed two classifiers aimed to predict, from long term ECG recordings (Holter), whether a

Indications of Implantable Defibrillator
Journal of Interventional Cardiology, 1995 Implantable cardioverter defibrillators are devices capable of detecting and terminating ventricular tachycardias or fibrillations. They are utilized in the treatment of severe ventricular tachyarrhythmias, and their efficacy in the prevention of sudden death is demonstrated.

Low energy defibrillation in human cardiac tissue: a simulation study [PDF]
, 2008 We aim to assess the effectiveness of feedback controlled resonant drift pacing as a method for low energy defibrillation. Antitachycardia pacing is the only low energy defibrillation approach to have gained clinical significance, but it is still suboptimal.

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2019 Clinical data analysis of 83 patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) for sudden cardiac death (SCD) primary prevention has been done. We revealed 5 parameters associated with the detection of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.

The Calculated Risk of Defibrillator Implantation
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2014 Clinical trials have convincingly demonstrated the efficacy of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) for the prevention of sudden cardiac death in appropriately selected patients [(1–3)][1].
