Implantable cardioverter defibrillators [PDF]
Sudden cardiac death occurs in 70,000-100,000 people annually in the UK, mostly in people with pre-existing heart disease but in 20% it is the first presentation Previous myocardial infarction (Ml) and significant left ventricular dysfunction are associated with a high rate of sudden cardiac death Implantable defibrillators are recommended in the ...

T-Wave Oversensing with Contemporary Implantable Cardioverter–Defibrillators
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.

The implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator [PDF]
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 ...

Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator utilization [PDF]
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 …
