Abstract

The dual-chamber ICD represents the next generation of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators. Of 122 patients with single-chamber ICDs reviewed retrospectively, 35 had traditional indications, 14 had other indications, and 18 had ICD-specific indications for dual-chamber pacing therapy. Thus, our data suggest that >50% of patients receiving an ICD are possible candidates for dual-chamber pacing support.
