Patients with severe structural heart disease have increased mortality after implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocks. Whether this is limited to ICD shock therapy only or extends also to no-shock therapies, such as antitachycardia pacing (ATP), is unclear. We investigated the impact of different ICD therapies on long-term mortality.

Abstract
Patients with severe structural heart disease have increased mortality after implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocks. Whether this is limited to ICD shock therapy only or extends also to no-shock therapies, such as antitachycardia pacing (ATP), is unclear. We investigated the impact of different ICD therapies on long-term mortality.
