Battery and Intracardiac Shock Device

Battery and Intracardiac Shock Device Insertion
Heart disease is an important life-threatening condition. In some cases, such as heart rhythm disturbances or heart failure, it may be necessary to implant a pacemaker or intracardiac shock device. These devices are used to regulate heart rhythm or intervene in emergency situations.

*Pacemaker Insertion*
A pacemaker is a device used when the heart beats irregularly or very slowly. These conditions may indicate heart rhythm disturbances and a pacemaker may need to be implanted. The pacemaker is implanted in the chest area through a small surgical procedure and improves the patient's quality of life by regulating the heart rhythm.

*Intracardiac Shock Device Insertion
An intracardiac shock device (ICD) is a device that protects against cardiac arrest or dangerous heart rhythms (for example, ventricular fibrillation). These conditions are life-threatening and it is vital that an ICD is implanted. The ICD is implanted in the chest and continuously monitors heart rhythms. When a dangerous rhythm is detected, the device can correct the heart rhythm by delivering an electrical shock.

*Ablation Procedure and Recovery Process*
Battery or ICD implantation is usually performed under local anesthesia. Patients can usually be discharged within a few hours after the procedure and recovery can be rapid. It is important to regularly check and maintain the device.
