Predictors of primary prevention implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator use in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction: impact of the predicted risk of sudden cardiac death and all‐cause mortality

AIMS: Use of implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators (ICD) for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is limited. We aimed to investigate barriers to ICD use in HFrEF while considering the predicted risk of mortality and SCD. METHOD A...
