The “AICD” is a battery-powered device implanted in the body designed to detect and treat life-threatening abnormal rhythms of the heart. It is recommended for control of severe arrhythmias which may occur suddenly and that have been poorly or incompletely controlled by medication or surgery. Pacemaker Cardioverter Defibrillator.

Apr 25, 2006 · Today’s presentation will focus on the ethical considerations of cardiac pacemakers and implantable defibrillators for end-of-life care. We will focus on identifying and discussing ethical considerations and then we’ll look at relevant VHA policies related to the withdrawal or withholding of life-sustaining treatment.

AICD stands for Automatic, Implantable, Cardioverter-Defibrillator. This is a variation on the idea of a pacemaker – the device has a sensing circuit and an output circuit, but instead of acting as a pacer, it spends it’s time waiting for the onset of some nasty tachyarrhythmia, like VT, or SVT – which it then tries to shock the patient ...
