University Hospital offers specialised ICD Combo Device Implantation (Surgery Only) using modern cardiac technology and established electrophysiology protocols. Established in 1842, the SAC accredited hospital is situated in Basel, Switzerland, with 773 beds, serving local and international patients.

An ICD is used in selected patients who have a significant risk of serious ventricular arrhythmias or sudden cardiac death. During implantation, the device is positioned under the skin and connected to the heart with leads that monitor cardiac activity. The cardiology team performs a comprehensive evaluation before surgery and provides device-care and follow-up guidance after implantation.
