Implanted cardioverter defibrillator

Wearable cardioverter defibrillators (WCDs) are external devices capable of continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring as well as automatic detection and defibrillation of potentially life-threatening arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF). They are an alternative approach for patients when an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is not appropriate.

It has been almost five years since our last edition was published. Much has happened in the world of cardiology and especially device therapy since then. A major advance has been the development of cardiac resynchronization therapy as heralded by the development of biventricular pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs). Cardiac resynchronization therapy represents an important new device therapy for patients with congestive heart failure.

This book is intended for the physician, nurse, student or technician that occasionally comes in contact with patients who have implanted heart rhythm control devices. It is meant as a reference and basic resource to provide quick explanations and answers to situations that are likely to be encountered relating to pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators.

The implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), an electric device which includes a pacemaker, has undergone revolutionary changes. Although the device initially was developed only to defibrillate patients with ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation, who did not respond to antiarrhythmic drug therapy, all current models are able to provide defibrillation, low-energy cardioversion, antitachycardia pacing for ventricular tachycardia termination, and bradycardia pacing backup.
