Subcutaneous ICD for more and transvenous ICD for few?! [PDF]
Clin Res Cardiol, 2022 AbstractImplantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) have been shown to reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death in primary or secondary prevention with thousands of ICDs implanted every year worldwide. Whilst ICD are more commonly implanted transvenously (TV), this approach carries high risk of peri- and post-procedural complications.

Early experience with the subcutaneous ICD. [PDF]
Curr Cardiol Rep, 2014 The Subcutaneous Internal Cardiac Defibrillator (S-ICD) represents a major advance in the care of patients who have an indication for an internal cardiac defibrillator without pacing indications. Its main advantage is that it can deliver a shock to cardiovert ventricular arrhythmias utilising a tunnelled subcutaneous lead, negating the risks associated

Subcutaneous ICD: Current standards and future perspective [PDF]
International Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2019 The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) system is an established therapy for prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and an alternative to a transvenous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) system in selected patients ...

The Subcutaneous ICD: A Review of the UNTOUCHED and PRAETORIAN Trials [PDF]
Arrhythmia & Electrophysiology Review, 2021 The ICD is an important part of the treatment and prevention of sudden cardiac death in many high-risk populations. Traditional transvenous ICDs (TV-ICDs) are associated with certain short- and long- term risks. The subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) was developed in order to avoid these risks and complications.

Infection and mortality after implantation of a subcutaneous ICD after transvenous ICD extraction [PDF]
Heart Rhythm, 2016 The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) provides an alternative to the transvenous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (TV-ICD). Patients undergoing TV-ICD explantation may be eligible for reimplantation with an S-ICD; however, information on safety outcomes in this complex population is limited.This analysis was designed to ...

Abdominal Emergency After Subcutaneous ICD Implantation. [PDF]
JACC Case Rep, 2022 We describe a previously unreported and potentially fatal complication of colonic perforation following the implantation of a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator in a young patient with nonischemic cardiomyopathy. We discuss the importance of technique and postprocedural evaluation for subdiaphragmatic complications.

Subcutaneous ICD Implantation and Catheter Ablation: A Step-Planned Approach for Ventricular Tachycardia Management in ARVC. [PDF]
JACC Case Rep, 2022 Secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death in the young patient with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy and hemodynamically tolerated ventricular tachycardia is still a challenging field. We present a combined approach, including subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) and catheter ablation, as a promising treatment to ...

An Unexpected Complication of Subcutaneous ICD Implantation and its Successful Management [PDF]
JACC: Case Reports, 2020 Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation is known to be a safe procedure. However, inappropriate lead insertion can lead to serious complications.

Recent advances in the entirely subcutaneous ICD System. [PDF]
F1000Prime Rep, 2015 The entirely subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD(®)) is emerging as a widely accepted therapeutic alternative to a conventional implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) for prevention of sudden cardiac death. Essentially, the S-ICD(®) is promising in terms of reduction of electrode-related complications such as lead failure ...
