Abstract
Mortality rates were higher in ICD patients who received only ATP compared to no therapy, but ICD patients who received a shock had higher mortality compared to both groups. Furthermore, the data suggest that age, gender, device type, AF burden, and rate of arrhythmia do not change the trend of higher mortality in patients receiving ICD shock compared to ATP alone.
