Implanted devices such as an AICD (automatic implanted cardiac defibrillator, an implanted device that senses ventricular tachycardia and administers a shock) may be useful for helping to control chronic ventricular tachycardia. Often this must be used in conjunction with suppressive, anti-arrhythmic agents to prevent repeated firing of the AICD. 2, record 1, English, - implanted%20device
