Provide a brief summary of this surgical procedure and its indications here.
Pacemaker or ICD placement is a minimally invasive procedure were a small incision below the clavicle is created and a cardiac pacemaker or ICD is placed. Through this pocket the cardiologist will insert a wire into the RV of the heart. Once the device is tested and functional, the pocket is closed and local is typically injected in the field.

Pacemaker or ICD placement is a minimally invasive procedure were a small incision below the clavicle is created and a cardiac pacemaker or ICD is placed. Through this pocket the cardiologist will insert a wire into the RV of the heart. Once the device is tested and functional, the pocket is closed and local is typically injected in the field.
