Abstract

The article assesses the efficacy of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) in a clinical setting. It informs that ICD therapy is established as the best option to prevent sudden cardiac death due to ventricular tachyarrythmia. It concludes that ineffective shock delivery may occur in patients with S-ICD even after successful intraoperative testing. The article also suggests that multicenter trials are required with close monitoring of safety and efficacy end points.
