What is the work of ICD?
An ICD works to control the heartbeat by delivering shocks to the heart when the device detects an irregular heartbeat. An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is a small battery-powered device placed in the chest to detect and stop irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias).
Why is ICD important?
The ICD is important because it provides a common language for recording, reporting, and monitoring diseases. This allows the world to compare and share data in a consistent and standard way – between hospitals, regions, and countries and over periods of time.
