How long will I be in the hospital?

Most people are discharged home the day after ICD implantation, once the clinical team is satisfied with the device function and the implant site. In straightforward cases, some centres discharge patients on the same day.

If new leads were implanted, or if there were any complications during the procedure, a slightly longer stay may be required. Your clinical team will advise you on what to expect based on your specific situation.
