An “UninTENSional” Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter-defibrillator Shock

Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) (S-ICDs) are advantageous because they eliminate the need for transvenous leads. However, just like in the case of traditional ICDs, inappropriate shocks are an unwanted complication that may result following their placement. In this case,...

description Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) (S-ICDs) are advantageous because they eliminate the need for transvenous leads. However, just like in the case of traditional ICDs, inappropriate shocks are an unwanted complication that may result following their placement. In this case, we discuss the mechanism of an inappropriate shock in a patient with an S-ICD.
