A person with an implanted defibrillator, known as an ICD (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator), can live for many years, often well into their 70s or 80s, depending on their overall health, the underlying heart condition, and how well they manage their health. The device itself is designed to monitor heart rhythms and deliver shocks if necessary, significantly improving survival rates in individuals with life-threatening arrhythmias. Regular follow-up care and adherence to medical advice are crucial for maximizing life expectancy.
