ICD Implantation
ICD Implantation
ICD implantation is a minimally invasive cardiac procedure designed to protect patients from dangerous heart rhythm disturbances and reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death.
At our center, we provide advanced ICD implantation procedures, ensuring precise diagnosis, expert treatment, and comprehensive care for patients with heart rhythm disorders.
Why is ICD Implantation Recommended?
What is an ICD?
The ICD detects abnormal heart rhythms such as ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation. When a dangerous rhythm is detected, the device delivers a controlled electrical shock to restore the heart’s normal rhythm.
ICDs are commonly recommended for patients who have serious arrhythmias or a high risk of sudden cardiac arrest.
How is ICD Implantation Performed?
Patient Preparation
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and mild sedation.
Device Placement
A small incision is made near the chest, and the ICD device is placed under the skin.
Lead Placement
Thin wires (leads) are guided through a vein into the heart to monitor heart rhythms.
Device Programming
The ICD is programmed to detect abnormal rhythms and deliver therapy when needed.
Who Needs ICD Implantation?
ICD implantation may be recommended for patients who have:
Life-Threatening Arrhythmias
Such as ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation.
History of Cardiac Arrest
Patients who have previously experienced sudden cardiac arrest.
Severe Heart Failure
Certain patients with weakened heart muscles and increased risk of arrhythmias.
High Risk of Sudden Cardiac Death
Patients with serious heart rhythm abnormalities.
