Completely subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator: Care of S-ICD wearers during childbirth

Der Anaesthesist
C Strewe, S Fichtner

Abstract

Inappropriate shock delivery is a problem that has been described for subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillators (S-ICDs). Situations which predispose inappropriate shock delivery, such as childbirth, must be identified and the best treatment strategies selected. Inactivation of the S-ICD is the safest approach to avoiding inappropriate shock delivery. Inactivation of the S-ICD requires adequate patient monitoring and facilities for manual shock delivery.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
