Core Tip	The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) has recently been commercialized in Europe, New Zealand and the United States and implanted in over 2000 patients so far worldwide. It represents an important innovation in the field of device therapy since it avoids the potential periprocedural and long-term complications associated with endovascular leads used with conventional transvenous ICDs. Future studies will better define patient target groups and thereby establish the therapeutic potential of this new device technology.
