I think the programming being hackable by anybody other than the electrophysiologist is the primary issue whether one has to do it being 7 feet away or 50 feet away. On a much bigger scale than STJ, NEJM just had an article about the futility of icd/crt in about half the patient population - non-ischemic VT sufferers. I had thought for quite some time that icd/crt were way over prescribed by EPs. Almost as if it is cya procedure that is a great revenue generator for EPs and implant manufacturers.
