Think of it as a 24/7 guardian for your heart — placed *outside* your veins. An #EVICD monitors for dangerous heart rhythms and steps in when needed, just like a traditional ICD. The difference? The wire stays outside your heart and blood vessels — which may make it a better fit for some patients. Watch this introductory video, then download our free printable "Understanding Your EV-ICD" patient guide: 🔗 UpBeat.org/Resources Made possible by Medtronic. #HeartDevice #ICD #HeartHealth #HeartRhythm #UpBeatbyHRS #Arrhythmia #PatientEducation
