متن کاملLetter by Fazio and Carlomagno regarding article, "Heart rate predicts outcomes in an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator population".
BACKGROUND Elevated heart rate (HR) is associated with adverse cardiovascular events and total mortality in the general population and in individuals with heart disease. Our hypothesis was that mean HR predicts total mortality and heart failure hospitalization in patients undergoing implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation. METHODS AND RESULTS The Inhibition of Unnecessary RV...

متن کاملLetter by Boriani et al regarding article, "Death without prior appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy: a competing risk study".
BACKGROUND Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) improve survival in selected patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction in randomized trials. Competing death without prior appropriate ICD therapy might preclude benefit from ICD implantation in a less selected routine-care population. METHODS AND RESULTS We selected all patients with ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathy with a...
