AIMS: The safety and feasibility of a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) has been demonstrated in the treatment of life-threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT). Nonetheless, its safety and feasibility in an Asian population with smaller body-build is unclear.
METHODS AND RESULTS: Twenty-one Asian patients who underwent S-ICD from 1 April 2014 to 2 February 2015 in five institutions in Hong Kong and Singapore were retrospectively reviewed. Twenty-one patients with a mean age of 50.0 ± 14.1 years (range 29-77 years, 82.6% male) were included. Among them, 17 (81.0%) were Chinese, 3 (14.3%) were Malay, and 1 (4.8%) was Indian. Their mean body mass index was 23.0 ± 4.0 kg/m(2). An S-ICD was implanted for primary and secondary prevention in 13 (61.9%) and 8 (38.1%) patients, respectively. The indications included Brugada syndrome (n = 6, 28.6%), ischaemic cardiomyopathy (CMP, n = 6, 28.6%), dilated CMP (n = 4, 19.0%), hypertrophic CMP (n = 2, 9.5%), and idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (n = 2, 9.5%). Three patients (14.3%) had prior infected transvenous ICD. There were no acute complications but eight wound complications (persistent wound bleeding requiring intervention = 2; delayed wound healing: upper sternal wound = 3; generator site = 1; local wound infection = 2) were observed in six (28.2%) patients. After a mean follow-up of 107.2 ± 81.3 days (range of 14-254 days), one patient underwent three successful appropriate shocks for treatment of VTs. No inappropriate therapy was documented.
CONCLUSION: Our initial experience shows that S-ICD is a feasible treatment for VT among an Asian population with smaller body-build. There was nonetheless a relatively high rate of wound complications.
