Cameron Health, Inc., (“Cameron”) is a privately held company with the corporate headquarters located in San Clemente, California and European Headquarters located in Arnhem, the Netherlands. Cameron has developed a totally subcutaneous implantable defibrillator (S-ICD) System that remedies many of the issues associated with traditional implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD’s). Specifically, Cameron's S-ICD System is designed to be smarter, more capable, and less time-consuming to implant, program and follow-up.
An ICD is a small battery powered electrical pulse generator that is implanted in patients who are at risk for ventricular tachyarrhythmias. In traditional ICD devices, leads are attached inside or on the patient's heart. These leads are then connected to a pulse generator that is implanted in a pocket beneath the patient's skin. When the ICD detects the patient is experiencing a life threatening rhythm, the ICD shocks the heart to restore the heart’s normal rhythm.
Unlike a traditional ICD, Cameron’s entire S-ICD System is implanted just under the skin in the subcutaneous tissue. This unique positioning may result in a simpler and safer implant procedure than for traditional ICD devices. Moreover, the lack of leads on or in the patient's heart may eliminate potentially serious complications associated with lead failures in traditional ICD devices.
