Electrophysiologist Michael Giudici, M.D., has pioneered a procedure at Genesis Medical Center, Davenport to implant devices under the breast for women who need a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD)
The procedure is a choice for some women who do not want the device to be visible when they wear a dress or swim suit. By implanting the device under the breast, there is less irritation and discomfort from purse and bra straps and no scar is visible.
