This article is a systematic review of the randomized controlled trials comparing Remote Monitoring (RM) with In-office (IO) follow-up of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD).[1]

Background

Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) have become the standard of care therapy for primary and secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death. Remote monitoring (RM) of ICD devices has been proposed as an alternative strategy to reduce the need for routine device follow-up visits while providing continuous surveillance and immediate problem notification.
