I have had patients who have survived over 20 years with a defibrillator. It is dependent on the reason the defibrillator was put in, and the underlying condition of the heart.
Many years and this is the reason we put Defibrillators, to prolong your life.
As long as needed.
For many decades. They are there to keep you alive.
