Defibrillator Replacement for Heart Rhythm Control

The provider removes a previously placed implantable defibrillator pulse generator from the patient and replaces it with a new one. The provider performs this procedure for a patient with a lead to a single chamber of the heart. Defibrillators sense and regulate the heart rate by delivering a mild electric shock when the patient requires it. Components need to be removed when they no longer function properly or when an infection occurs. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
