AICD, CRT Implantation

At Swastham Heart Care, we provide specialized services for AICD (Automated Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) and CRT (Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy) implantation to manage complex heart rhythm disorders and advanced heart failure.

🔹 AICD (Automated Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) An AICD is a small device implanted in the chest to continuously monitor your heart rhythm. If a life-threatening arrhythmia (like ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation) is detected, the device delivers a shock to restore normal rhythm — preventing sudden cardiac arrest.

CRT (Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy) CRT is used for patients with heart failure and poor heart pumping function. The device sends electrical impulses to both sides of the heart to help it beat in a more coordinated way, improving efficiency and reducing symptoms.
