What is an ICD?
An Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) is a small device placed under the skin that monitors your heart’s rhythm. If it detects a dangerous arrhythmia, it delivers electrical shocks to restore a normal heartbeat. This lifesaving device is essential for patients at risk of sudden cardiac arrest.
