Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators are the Main Link in the Modern Concept of Sudden Cardiac Death Prevention. Problems and Prospects of the Development of the Method

Abstract
The article covers the development of the problem of sudden cardiac death prevention with the implantable cardioverterdefibrillators from the moment of creation of these devices to our days. The current concept of primary prevention of sudden cardiac death, based on the severity of manifestation of heart failure and left ventricular dysfunction, is not effective enough. Its practical application is difficult because it requires mass application of implantable defibrillators, with low predictive accuracy of these criteria in terms of development of lifethreatening arrhythmias. The development of methods for visualizing the myocardium, allowing to assess the severity of myocardial fibrosis, as well as the possibilities of medical genetics, at the present stage, allows us to clarify indications for implantation of cardioverterdefibrillators and thereby significantly improve the concept of preventing sudden cardiac death with these instruments.
