The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillators （SICD） is an altemative to the transvenous ICD for the prevention of sudden cardiac death （SCD）. Multiple studies have shown that the SICD is safe and effective in treating ventricular arrhythmias. While earlier stud- ies mainly enrolled younger patients with channelopathies, more recent reports included patients with ＂typical＂ indications for ICD therapy for the prevention of SCD. In this review we summarize the data available to date on the SICD while highlighting its pros and cons.

AIM To identify predictors of need for repeat procedures after initial atrial fibrillation(AF) ablation. METHODS We identified a cohort undergoing first time AF ablation at our institution from January 2004 to February 2014 who had cardiac magnetic resonance(CMR) imaging performed prior to ablation. Clinical variables and anatomic characteristics(determined from CMR) were assessed as predictors of need for repeat ablation. The decision regarding need for and timing of repeat ablation was at the discretion of the treating physician. RESULTS From a cohort of 331 patients, 142 patients(43%) underwent repeat ablation at a mean of 13.6 ± 18.4 mo afterthe index procedure. Both male gender(81% vs 71%, P = 0.05) and lower ejection fraction(57.4% ± 10.3% vs 59.8% ± 9.4%, P = 0.04) were associated with need for repeat ablation. On pre-ablation CMR, mean pulmonary vein(PV) diameters were significantly larger in all four PVs among patients requiring repeat procedures. In multivariate analysis, increased right superior PV diameter significantly predicted need for repeat ablation(odds ratio 1.08 per millimeter increase in diameter, 95%CI: 1.00-1.16, P = 0.05). There were also trends toward significance for increased left and right inferior PV sizes among those requiring repeat *** Increased PV size predicts the need for repeat AF ablation, with each millimeter increase in PV diameter associated with an approximately 5%-10% increased risk of requiring repeat procedures.
