There are no right or wrong answers.


This information will help you decide whether or not an ICD is right for you. Before making your decision, think about what is most important to you – and how you would like to live the rest of your life.

What is important to you?

While no-one can predict the future, if you were able to choose, how would you like to live out the rest of your life?

Things to consider

  • What benefits do you think you might experience?
  • What losses do you think you might experience?
  • How might your life change?
  • What frightens you about living with or without an ICD?
