Is shock impedance value alone to be considered a good predictor for shock efficacy in subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator?

Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S‐ICD) is easy to implant, with poor risks of the patient. However, fat is a poor current conductor and increases defibrillation threshold. As shock impedance alone should not be considered a good efficacy predictor of an S‐ICD system, an X‐ray la...

description Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S‐ICD) is easy to implant, with poor risks of the patient. However, fat is a poor current conductor and increases defibrillation threshold. As shock impedance alone should not be considered a good efficacy predictor of an S‐ICD system, an X‐ray latero‐lateral view for lead position should be achieved.
