DOI: 10.1002/clc.23679
Abstract: Many studies have reported the predictors of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after persistent AF (peAF) ablation. However, the correlation between the atrial defibrillation threshold (DFT) for internal cardioversion (IC) and AF recurrence rate is unknown.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(20)31165-7
Abstract: Defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing is recommended in patients undergoing initial subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) implantation. There are little to no data on chronic DFT testing in patients undergoing S-ICD generator change at the end of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/00015385.2019.1630586
Abstract: Abstract Background: Defibrillation threshold testing (DT) following implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation has not shown to improve mortality. However, the impact of DT on burden of heart failure (HF) hospitalisations has not been well defined.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ehjci/ehaa946.0787
Abstract: The extravascular ICD (EV ICD) is a novel defibrillator that couples a substernal lead to a device under the left axilla. The electrode locations for best defibrillation performance are unknown. In this study we use… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jce.13121
Abstract: In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients the need for defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing at the time of ICD implantation is debated. Moreover, its prognostic implications have never been explored. In a cohort of HCM patients we… read more here.
