Abstract
Cardioverter-defibrillators were implanted in children aged 4 to 16 years over a 5-year period with no mortality and eventual clinically appropriate shocks in 6 of 11 patients. Both transvenous and epicardial implantable cardioverter-defibrillators were safe and effective in children resuscitated from sudden death or at high risk for sudden death.Entities:
