Diretrizes para o implante de cardioversor desfibrilador implantável

Abstract: A morte súbita, responsável por cerca de 20% da mortalidade natural, continua sendo um dos maiores problemas da cardiologia. O arsenal terapêutico utilizado no seu combate inclui os medicamentos antiarrítmicos, a ressecção cirúrgica, a ablação endocárdica por cateter e o implante de dispositivos elétricos: os cardioversores-desfibriladores implantáveis.Sua utilização experimentou um enorme incremento nos últimos anos e vários megaestudos têm sido realizados para delinear a melhor opção terapêutica.Os resultado… Show more

“…In 80% to 85% of cases, occurs an interaction between an event that promotes electrical instability, which leads to ventricular tachycardia that triggers ventricular fibrillation [2]. The therapy used in the treatment include antiarrhythmic drugs, surgical resection, endocardial catheter ablation, and implantation of an electric device: the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) [1,3]. Since 1984, it has been used for primary prevention of sudden death [4].…”
