[|Human|] My husband had a heart attack at age 43. he was diagnosed with Ventricular Tachycardia and has a dual ICD defibrillator and pacemaker. He never smoked nor drank. He s had his device changed about every seven years since then. He is now 57 yrs. old and doing very well with medication. What is the life expectancy of someone with this type of device?
[|AI|]  Thank you for question madam. I truly understand your concerned for your husbands' health. As long as he is on regular follow-up with cardiologist and being very particular with his medicines and regularly changing device than I would say he will have good life expectancy. He will end up in trouble in certain situations like, device battery failure or other device related complications or new onset of cardiac event such as heart attack. I can't not tell you numbers and nobody can predict that but I would definitely say he may have good life expectancy if he follows above-mentioned advises. Wish your husband healthy life ahead.
