Long‐term safety and efficacy of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator compared with transvenous implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator in propensity score‐matched patients from Japan
In propensity score-matched Japanese patients with S-ICD, the cumulative incidence of appropriate shock and mortality was comparable to those with TV-ICD. There was no significant difference in the rate of IAS. Notably, patients with S-ICD had fewer lead-related complications than those with TV-ICD.
