Ajay, a 26-year-old with a complex congenital heart condition, suffered a cardiac arrest during a hospital visit. Doctors resuscitated him and discovered severe dysfunction in his only functioning heart chamber. Due to a high stroke risk, they implanted a subcutaneous ICD to monitor his heart’s activity. Following the procedure, he was discharged in stable condition and is being evaluated for a heart transplant.
