What is the difference between a pacemaker and an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator?

What is an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD)? An implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) looks similar to a pacemaker, though slightly larger. It works very much like a pacemaker. But the ICD can send an energy shock that resets an abnormal heartbeat back to normal.

How serious is pacemaker defibrillator surgery?

Getting a pacemaker or ICD requires minor surgery. You usually need to stay in the hospital for a day or two, so your doctor can make sure that the device is working well. You will probably be back to your normal activities within a few days.

What to do with a pacemaker during surgery?

When possible, the pacemaker should be placed in an asynchronous or triggered mode. This will avoid inhibition due to EMI that could lead to asystole in the pacemaker-dependent patient. As discussed earlier, asynchronous pacing should be avoided if possible in patients prone to VT and VF.

How do they put an ICD on a pacemaker?

The device is placed under the skin beneath the collarbone. The surgery to place an ICD in the chest usually takes a few hours. Once the ICD is in place, your surgeon tests it and programs it for your specific heart rhythm needs.

Is an implantable cardioverter defibrillator the same as a pacemaker?

Pacemakers deliver low-energy electrical pulses that help make sure the heart beats at a steady pace to meet an individuals needs. ICDs are slightly larger than pacemakers and also monitor the heart for abnormal beating, but they can also deliver a shock if a dangerous rhythm is detected.
