Abstract

The paper represents the data on clinical use of implantable cardioverters-defibrillators. These apparatuses ensure effective arrest and prevention of episodes of ventricular tachyarrhythmias. The potentialities of the method are largely determined by recognition sensitivity and specificity of various tachyarrhythmias. The obvious advantage of the method is an increase in patients' survival reaching 60% within 5 years of cardioverter-defibrillator postimplantation.
