Defibrillators

The goal of this study is to learn if an automated external defibrillator (AED) training adjunct video can improve law enforcement self-efficacy, the likelihood of AED application overall, and decrease disparities in women. Participants will be asked to: * complete a brief initial survey * view an AED training adjunct video * complete another survey following the video

This study investigates the impact and safety of wireless monitoring on the prognosis of heart failure patients with implanted pacemakers and defibrillators. It aims to examine the frequency of unplanned early hospital visits and the early diagnosis/intervention of disease exacerbation based on the presence or absence of wireless monitoring. Additionally, the study analyzes the influence of wireless monitoring on the patient's disease progression as well as satisfaction of the study participants.

All patients having an implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) implanted and having follow-up at the Cantonal Hospital Lucerne (LUKS), the investigator center, are included in this retrospective ICD lead registry from 2006 onwards. Data is collected prospectively from december 2016 onwards. After certain ICD-leads tended to fail early the investigators aimed for a registry monitoring our patient population with defibrillator leads and evaluating their long-term performance.
