Defibrillator is a machine control heart rate by giving Shock. Whenever heart get VT / VT to terminate this abnormal rhythm Defibrillator gives shock.
Its a small ecg analyser and gives shock when any abnormality Detect, by machine.
So, dont worry n get ready for the procedure.

ICDs (implantable cardioverter defibrillator) are small devices which can be implanted beneath the skin and function automatically for several years. They detect and treat life threatening disorders of cardiac rhythm.
