An Overview of Clinical Outcomes in Transvenous and Subcutaneous ICD Patients. [PDF]
Clear guidelines on when to select a subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) over a transvenous ICD (TV-ICD) are lacking. This review will provide an overview of the most recent clinical data on S-ICD and TV-ICD therapy by pooling comparison studies in order to aid clinical decision making.Pooling of observational-matched studies demonstrated an incidence rate ratio (
