The ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) Support Group is a support group for ICD recipients, their families and friends in the greater Charlotte area. Sponsored by The Sanger Clinic, The Carolinas Heart Institute and the major ICD device manufacturers, the ICD Support Group offers a forum for education and a network for support.

The group meets every other month at varied locations at no cost to participants. Meetings feature interactive lectures on topics that are of interest to those with ICDs. Topics such as "Traveling with an ICD", "Your ICD and How It Works" and "Intimacy and Your ICD" have been presented at past meetings. The opportunity for meeting and talking with other ICD recipients is also provided.
