Implantable Cardioverter-defibrillators Market – Global
Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook, and Opportunity
Analysis, 2018-2026
An ICD or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator is a battery-operated device that is placed under
the skin of the patient to monitor the user’s heart rate. ICDs are connected to the heart by thin
wires. In cases where an abnormal heart beat is detected, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator
deliver an electric shock to reinstate a normal heart rhythm if the patient’s heart is beating too
fast. Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators have been useful in thwarting sudden deaths in
patients with fibrillation or sustained ventricular tachycardia. Various studies have shown that
they may prevent cardiac arrest in patients who are at a high risk of life-threatening ventricular
arrhythmias. An implantable cardioverter -defibrillator senses when the heart rhythm is not
normal and it tries to make the heart rhythm normal. If the device has a pacemaker feature
incorporated, it works as a pacemaker when the heartbeat is slow, and transmit tiny electric
signals to the heart. However, when the heartbeat is very chaotic or fast, the device gives
defibrillation shocks in order to restrain the abnormal rhythm. Implantable cardioverter-
defibrillators work for 24 hours a day.

According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it is estimated that around 2.7–
6.1 million individuals in the U.S. suffered from atrial fibrillation in 2015. The report suggests
that the number of occurrences is likely to increase with the increase in number of aging of the
population in this region. Roughly 2% of the population who are younger than 65 years of age
suffers from AF. However, around 9% of the population with 65 years of age or more suffers
from AF. Increasing cases of AF among the global population coupled with advancement in
technology will drive the implantable cardioverter-defibrillators market during the forecast
period.
