Single-center experience with wearable cardioverter-defibrillator as a bridge before definitive ICD implantation

摘要

The wearable cardioverter-defibrillator (WCD) has been approved for patients with poor left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) who are at risk of sudden arrhythmic death for a limited period but are not candidates for a definitive implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). The present study sought to retrospectively analyse our single-centre experience.
