The seven-plus-minute video, available in English and Spanish, explains ICD function in clear, relatable terms. It uses effective analogies, comparing an ICD to a fire alarm that remains inactive ...

In patients with cardiovascular disease who had an ICD and were at high risk for ventricular arrhythmias, increasing potassium levels led to a significantly lower risk for arrhythmia events.

DALLAS, March 6, 2012 ― A software monitoring program that tracks implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) function could detect problems with the devices earlier than current monitoring ...

The ICDs are of three major types, namely transvenous ICDs, subcutaneous ICDs, and CRT with pacemaker and ICD function.

But to be on the safe side, people may want to keep digital medial players at least 6 inches away from their pacemaker or ICD -- for instance, not carrying it in a chest pocket -- and turning the ...

We also have no data to support more frequent interrogation of the device at specific intervals during the radiation course. There is also the possibility of delayed effects on ICD function.

A software monitoring program that tracks implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) function could detect problems with the devices earlier than current monitoring processes, according to new ...

A new and effective computer software program helps track implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) function sooner, according to a recent research.

Then, in the active group, patients were seen in the ambulatory department only once a year, unless an anomalous ICD function or an event of clinical concern was reported by remote monitoring and ...
