An Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) is a life-saving device designed to detect and treat dangerously fast heart rhythms (ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation) that can lead to sudden cardiac arrest. The device constantly monitors heart rate and delivers an electric shock if a life-threatening arrhythmia is detected, instantly restoring normal rhythm.
"ICD implantation is one of the most effective ways to prevent sudden cardiac death in high-risk patients — offering peace of mind and a second chance at life."
