Inappropriate shocks in the subcutaneous ICD: Incidence, predictors and management

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology, 2015
The entirely subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) eliminates the need for transvenous leads, and therefore has the potential to improve lead-longevity and reduce lead-related complications. The S-ICD has a morphology-based sensing algorithm of which inappropriate shocks have been reported.We analyzed the incidence, predictors and

Causes and Prevention of Inappropriate Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator Shocks

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2018
Use of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators as a primary prevention therapy has been shown to reduce mortality in patients after cardiac arrest and also with left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Yet, inappropriate shocks are variably reported and associated with a reduction in quality of life.

Pre-implant predictors of inappropriate shocks with the third-generation subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator.

open access: yesEuropace, 2022
International audienceAbstract Aims Despite recent improvements, inappropriate shocks emitted by implanted subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillators (S-ICDs) remain a challenge in ‘real-life’ practice. We aimed to study the pre-implant factors

Fatal Inappropriate ICD Shock

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2006
Introduction: Inappropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy carries a low but relevant risk of ventricular proarrhythmia. In the present case, the extremely rare event of a fatal arrhythmia caused by inappropriate therapy is reported.
