Confused about what ICD is and can it help Erikson during game ? Then this 1 guide might be important for you.

Christian Eriksen has joined for Premier League side Brentford, just seven months after suffering a heart arrest at Euro 2020.

He was allowed to return after passing a series of medical exams following the installation of an ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator), which helps to regulate his heart rate.

The entire football world came to a halt when Eriksen fainted during Denmark’s group-stage match against Finland. Fans all over the world have been heartened by his return to the professional game months later.

Eriksen would be unable to play in Italy, where he was with Inter before the incident, according to Serie A defibrillator rules.

Eriksen is fortunate to be playing again, according to Ignacio Fernandez Lozano, head of the arrhythmia section at Hospital Puerta de Hierro in Madrid, because he would not be deemed fit if he came to Spain.

So let me now brief you that what ICD actually is.

Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator:

An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is a small battery-operated device that detects and stops abnormal heartbeats in the chest (arrhythmias). It constantly monitors the heartbeat and, when necessary, administers electric shocks to restore a normal cardiac rhythm.

If you have a dangerously fast heartbeat that prevents your heart from pumping enough blood to the rest of your body (ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation), or if you are at high risk of developing such a heart rhythm problem (arrhythmia), usually due to a weak heart muscle, you may need it.

A pacemaker, which is an implantable device that can prevent dangerously slow heartbeats, is not the same as it.

Types of ICD:

Implantable cardioverter defibrillator is a type of cardiac therapy device. There are two different types:

A traditional ICD:

The wires (leads) are attached to the heart and are inserted in the chest. Implant surgery necessitates extensive surgery.

A subcutaneous ICD:

(S-ICD) is another alternative that is placed under the skin below the armpit on the side of the chest. It’s connected to an electrode that goes along the middle of the breastbone. S-ICDs are larger than regular ones, however they do not attach to the heart.

Why is it carried out in this way?

An ICD continuously checks for abnormal heartbeats and attempts to fix them as quickly as possible. When the heart quits working properly, it can help (cardiac arrest).

If structural problems in the heart prevent wires from being attached to the heart through the blood arteries, a health care professional might propose an S-ICD.
