What is an implantable cardiac defibrillator? An implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD, or implantable cardioverter defibrillator) is an internal shocking device that provides immediate therapy to a life-threatening arrhythmia (heart beating too quickly) via a jolt of electricity. It can also act as a pacemaker if the heart is beating too slow.
The automated external defibrillator (AED) is a computerized medical device. An AED can check a personâs heart rhythm. It can recognize a rhythm that requires a shock. And it can advise the rescuer when a shock is needed. The AED uses voice prompts, lights and text messages to tell the rescuer the steps to take.
