Though the PRAETORIAN group was technically unable to prove that 8 years was enough to give a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) an edge in safety, complication rates helped ...

BOSTON -- A leadless pacemaker reliably communicated with a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) to deliver anti-tachycardia (ATP) and bradycardia pacing, the MODULAR ATP study ...

The Cleveland Clinic announced their team successfully implanted the world's first leadless pacemaker defibrillator system in two patients. Pacemakers provide electrical stimulation to regulate a ...
