Background
Nontransvenous implanted cardioverter defibrillators (NT‐ICD) are used in infants and small children with life‐threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias. With growth, shock vector shift may result in increase of defibrillation threshold (DFT) and fatal ICD failure.
Objectives
To date, the only way to verify ICD function in childr...
