The Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter-defibrillator: New Features and Implant Techniques and Future Developments.


ABSTRACT: The use of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (S-ICDs) has increased over time. Device-based algorithms have been developed to reduce inappropriate shocks. New implant techniques have been developed including the two-incision technique and the placement of the generator submuscularly. More patients are being implanted without general anesthesia. This review summarizes the newest S-ICD features, surgical implantation methods, and device-related safety and efficacy findings.
