DOI: 10.1007/s10840-017-0297-8
Abstract: BackgroundImplantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are life-saving device therapy, and patients often carry devices for decades with interim pulse generator exchanges. Inappropriate shocks are associated with impaired quality of life and increased mortality, but available data… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ccep.2017.11.006
Abstract: Use of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators as a primary prevention therapy has been shown to reduce mortality in patients after cardiac arrest and also with left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Yet, inappropriate shocks are variably reported and associated… read more here.

Abstract: Introduction The clinical benefits of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy have been widely documented in clinical studies of selected patient populations. Subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) is a valid alternative to transvenous ICDinpatientswhodonot require cardiac resynchronization or antibradycardia… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.hrcr.2021.01.010
Abstract: Contemporary S-ICDs with programmed SMART Pass algorithms and conditional zones will not mitigate scenarios of oversensing during bradycardia. Introduction Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (S-ICD) have been shown to be noninferior to conventional transvenous ICDs with respect… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/europace/euab116.413
Abstract: Type of funding sources: None. Previous studies have shown an adverse prognosis for patients with transvenous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) who receive both appropriate and inappropriate shocks. There is a paucity of data regarding the prognosis… read more here.
