Diagnosis and management of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator infections based on process mapping

© 2020 Wiley Periodicals LLC..

BACKGROUND: Infection is a well-recognized complication of cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation, including the more recently available subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD). Although the AHA/ACC/HRS guidelines include recommendations for S-ICD use, currently there are no clinical trial data that address the diagnosis and management of S-ICD infections. Therefore, an expert panel was convened to develop consensus on these topics.

METHODS: A process mapping methodology was used to achieve a primary goal - the development of consensus on the diagnosis and management of S-ICD infections. Two face-to-face meetings of panel experts were conducted to recommend useful information to clinicians in individual patient management of S-ICD infections.

RESULTS: Panel consensus of a stepwise approach in the diagnosis and management was developed to provide guidance in individual patient management.

CONCLUSION: Achieving expert panel consensus by process mapping methodology in S-ICD infection diagnosis and management was attainable, and the results should be helpful in individual patient management.
