Impact of a Chronic Total Coronary Occlusion on the Incidence of Appropriate Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillator Shocks and Mortality: A Substudy of the Dutch Outcome in ICD Therapy (DO‐IT)) Registry
Background Chronic total coronary occlusions (CTO) substantially increase the risk for sudden cardiac death. Among patients with chronic ischemic heart disease at risk for sudden cardiac death, an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is the favored therapy for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death. This study sought to investigate the impact of CTOs on the risk for appropriate ICD shocks and mortality within a nationwide prospective cohort.
