The primary objective of the study is to determine the predictors of appropriate anti-tachycardia therapy (with shock) in a non-selected population of patients implanted with an ICD.
Secondary objectives of the study are:
* the incidence of anti-tachycardia therapies; * the predictors of inappropriate therapy and onset of arrhythmia burden; * the adherence to the current guidelines in the Italian clinical practice; * the predictors of heart failure (HF) onset and response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).
Treatments tested
- implantable cardioverter defibrillator
