Overview of implantable cardioverter defibrillator and cardiac resynchronisation therapy in heart failure management.
Singapore Medical Journal 2016 July
Clinical trials have established the benefits of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) in the treatment of heart failure patients.
