What is an ICD / AICD Implant?
An ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) also called an AICD (Automatic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator),it is a small electronic device implanted inside the chest to monitor and correct life-threatening heart rhythms. Unlike a pacemaker that mainly treats slow heartbeats, an ICD is designed to prevent sudden cardiac death caused by dangerous fast rhythms.

Common Candidates for ICD / AICD
Patients may require ICD implantation when they have:
History of Ventricular Tachycardia (VT)
History of Ventricular Fibrillation (VF)
Previous Sudden Cardiac Arrest (successfully resuscitated)
Severely Reduced Ejection Fraction (EF) — typically ≤35%
Heart Failure with High Arrhythmia Risk
cardiomiopatia (dilated / ischemic)
Pazienti post-infarto with rhythm instability
Sindromi aritmiche ereditarie
Why is an ICD Needed?
Doctors recommend an ICD for patients at risk of serious ventricular arrhythmias, such as:
Ventricular Tachycardia (VT): very fast heartbeat
Ventricular Fibrillation (VF): chaotic rhythm that can be fatal
Survivors of cardiac arrest
Severe heart failure with low ejection fraction
Certain inherited heart rhythm disorders
Types of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator and costs in Turkey
Type of ICD | Descrizione | Caso d'uso tipico |
ICD monocamerale | One lead placed in the right ventricle to monitor and correct dangerous rhythms | Patients primarily needing shock therapy without atrial pacing |
ICD bicamerale | Two leads placed in the right atrium and right ventricle for improved rhythm detection and coordination | Patients requiring better rhythm discrimination or pacing support |
Biventricular ICD (CRT-D) | Three leads stimulating both ventricles and providing defibrillation capability | Heart failure patients with ventricular dyssynchrony and low EF |
Subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) | No leads inside the heart; device and electrode placed under the skin | Younger patients or those avoiding transvenous leads |
MRI-Compatible ICD | Specially designed to allow MRI scans under specific conditions | Patients likely to need future MRI imaging |
