The subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (S-ICD) offers protection from sudden cardiac death without transvenous leads. Although contemporary techniques and programming have reduced inappropriate shocks, high rates persist in certain populations. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of a novel quantitative vector screening (QVS) protocol on the incidence of sensing-related complications and inappropriate shocks in patients undergoing S-ICD implantation.
