  2. Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implantable_cardioverter...

    More modern devices have software designed to attempt a discrimination between ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia (VT), and may try to pace the heart faster than its intrinsic rate in the case of VT, to try to break the tachycardia before it progresses to ventricular fibrillation. This is known as overdrive pacing, or anti ...

  3. Implantable loop recorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implantable_loop_recorder

    An implantable loop recorder (ILR), also known as an insertable cardiac monitor (ICM), is a small device that is implanted under the skin of the chest for cardiac monitoring, to record the heart's electrical activity for an extended period.

    S-ICD lead and generator position. Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator, or S-ICD, is an implantable medical device for detecting and terminating ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation in patients at risk of sudden cardiac arrest. [1]

  5. Defibrillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defibrillation

    Defibrillation is a treatment for life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias, specifically ventricular fibrillation (V-Fib) and non-perfusing ventricular tachycardia (V-Tach). [1] [2] A defibrillator delivers a dose of electric current (often called a counter-shock) to the heart.

  6. Holter monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holter_monitor

    Each Holter system has hardware (called monitor or recorder) for recording the signal, and software for review and analysis of the record. There may be a "patient button" on the front that the patient can press at specific instants such as feeling/being sick, going to bed, taking pills, marking an event of symptoms which is then documented in the symptoms diary, etc.; this records a mark that ...

  7. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    Implantable devices such as the artificial cardiac pacemaker and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator are capable of measuring a "far field" signal between the leads in the heart and the implanted battery/generator that resembles an ECG signal (technically, the signal recorded in the heart is called an electrogram, which is interpreted ...
