TLDR
The novel automated screening tool, introduced recently for objective screening, seems to be a valuable advance, due to its standardized and objective process, but it still lacks specificity.

Spotlight on S-ICD™ therapy: 10 years of clinical experience and innovation.

TL;DR: The S-ICD™ performance is promising even for many patients, who may not be 'classical' candidates for this technology, which sheds a spotlight on S- ICD™ therapy in recently discovered fields of indication beyond ideal preconditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of a novel automatic screening tool for determining eligibility for a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.

TL;DR: There was a high ECG eligibility for S-ICD, although patients with HCM had a lower passing rate irrespective of the screening method, and AST showed a high agreement with manual ECG-screening for S -ICD.

The Subcutaneous ICD: A Review of the UNTOUCHED and PRAETORIAN Trials.

TL;DR: The subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) was developed in order to avoid these risks and complications as discussed by the authors, however, this system is associated with its own set of limitations and complications.

Brugada syndrome: Eligibility for subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator after exercise stress test

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors test electrocardiographic eligibility for S-ICD placement after exercise stress testing (EST) in patients with Brugada syndrome (BrS) using the Boston Scientific model 2889 EMBLEM™ automated screening tool.

Usefulness of a standard 12-lead electrocardiogram to predict the eligibility for a subcutaneous defibrillator

TL;DR: Using the standard 12-lead ECG, a simple screening model with a high specificity for S-ICD eligibility is developed and suggests that patients who fulfill the three ECG criteria do not need additional AST-screening.
