Doi : 10.1016/S0002-9149(99)80215-X
Abstract |
Displacement of an ICD electrode is a possible complication after changes in heart size after CABG and simultaneous implantation of an epicardial lead ICD. To prevent potentially life-threatening ICD dysfunction in patients who are candidates for CABG and ICD implantation, we suggest the use of transvenous ICD systems or a staged procedure (CABG followed by ICD implantation) rather than a simultaneous operation.
