Defibrillation Threshold Testing: Current Status
Author(s): Justin Hayase , Duc H Do , Noel G Boyle Added: 3 years ago
The ICD is an important therapy for both primary and secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death in selected patients. The role for defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing either intraoperatively or postoperatively has changed significantly over the past few decades, and it is no longer routinely recommended in patients undergoing left-sided transvenous ICD implantation.1–7 The definition of the… View more

The use of cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) has increased dramatically, with approximately 1.2–­1.4 million CIEDs implanted annually worldwide.1 In the US alone, there are more patients with CIEDs than registered nurses.2,3 CIEDs use leads that connect a generator to cardiac tissue to treat patients with many conditions including symptomatic bradycardia, morbid tachycardia… View more

Electrophysiology & Arrhythmia
Author(s): Dietmar Bänsch Added: 3 years ago
For more than three decades, the implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) has proven to be a well-established, main therapeutic tool for the primary and secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death due to malignant ventricular arrhythmias.1 One of the standard practice concepts is defibrillation (DF) testing. Defibrillation testing has been considered a mandatory part at the time of… View more

Electrophysiology & Arrhythmia
Author(s): Hussam Ali , Pierpaolo Lupo , Riccardo Cappato Added: 3 years ago
Numerous large clinical trials have demonstrated the benefit of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) to prevent sudden cardiac death (SCD) in selected populations.1,2 These results and advances in defibrillation therapies have led to an impressive expansion of ICD implants and indications in recent decades. Although initially focusing on secondary prevention, current ICD indications… View more
