Safety and Efficacy of the Extravascular Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (EV ICD) in Japanese Patients ― Final Results From the EV ICD Japan Study ―
Background: The extravascular implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (EV ICD) has proven efficacy and a low complication rate in global populations, but data from Japanese patients is limited. We report the safety and efficacy of the EV ICD system in a Japanese cohort through 12 months of follow-up.
