| Popis: | Aim Use of the subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) to prevent sudden cardiac death is increasing. Few data exist on S-ICD in young patients. We report preliminary data from a multicenter European registry of paediatric and young adult patients who underwent S-ICD implantation Methods Observational, prospective, non-randomized, standard-of-care study on S-ICD implantation/follow-up in young patients with inherited arrhythmias (IA), cardiomyopathies, and congenital heart defects (CHD). Results 29 patients (12 CHD, 14 Cardiomyopathies, and 3 IA), mean age 17±6 years, 13 of them Conclusion These preliminary results of a multicenter European paediatric registry suggest that S-ICD is safe and effective with low rates of inappropriate shocks. Improvement of implantation techniques seems associated with better outcome. |
