Coronary vein defibrillator coil placement in patients with high defibrillation thresholds

Abstract Background Elevated defibrillation threshold (DFT) occurs in 2%‐6% of patients undergoing implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation. Adding a defibrillation coil in the coronary sinus (CS) or its branches can result in substantial reductions in the mean DFT. However, data re...
