Episode Description
In this episode, Dr. Kenneth Ellenbogen discusses an important analysis from the PRAETORIAN-DFT trial examining whether shock impedance can reliably predict defibrillation success after subcutaneous ICD implantation. While low impedance values are increasingly used in practice as a surrogate for defibrillation testing, this multicenter study shows that although an impedance
