Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD)
An ICD is a battery-powered device implanted under the skin that is directly linked to the heart, constantly reading and monitoring uneven heartbeats known as arrhythmia.
The device auto-detects abnormal heartbeat and promptly sends an electric shock to correct the order of heartbeat preventing cardiac arrest of the person.
A person with certain heart conditions that cannot be controlled with other forms of treatments requires an ICD like a history of heart attack or cardiac arrests, ventricular arrhythmia, ventricular fibrillation, problems related to heart contraction, or other reasons stated by the medical professional.
