Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier survival curves for freedom from infection. Survival curves documenting freedom from device-related infections that required intervention after implantation of a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, according to status of prior device implantation: previous transvenous (TV) device explantation because of infection; previous explantation for other reasons; no previous explantation. Post-op = postoperative. Heart Rhythm , DOI: ( /j.hrthm ) Copyright © 2016 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions
