    • Science

The story of S-ICD technology spans more than three decades, and Dr. Martin Burke has witnessed it all. In the final episode of the interview series, host Wyatt Stahl returns to the earliest days of subcutaneous defibrillation—discovering what the S-ICD of yesterday can teach us about the S-ICD of tomorrow.

“I always thought it was funny that we had all these devices that we were putting in subcutaneously, but we never used any of that information towards making sensing better.”
Martin C. Burke, electrophysiologist

Disclosure: Dr. Burke is a consultant with Boston Scientific.
