When an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) delivers a shock, it can feel like a sudden jolt or a hard thump to the chest. Many patients describe the sensation as intense and uncomfortable, similar to a strong kick or a punch. While the shock is usually brief, it may cause a momentary feeling of anxiety or panic due to the unexpected nature of the event. However, it is important to remember that the shock is a life-saving measure intended to restore a normal heart rhythm.
