Arrhythmias Detection in a Real World Population (RHYTHM DETECT)

May 4, 2021 updated by: Maurizio Eugenio Landolina

Arrhythmias Detection in a Real World Population: the RHYTHM DETECT Registry

The study is a prospective multicenter registry. Consecutive patients with indications of implant / replacement or upgrade of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) will be enrolled.

The primary objective of the study is to determine the predictors of appropriate anti-tachycardia therapy (with shock) in a non-selected population of patients implanted with an ICD.

Secondary objectives of the study are:

  • the incidence of anti-tachycardia therapies;
  • the predictors of inappropriate therapy and onset of arrhythmia burden;
  • the adherence to the current guidelines in the Italian clinical practice;
  • the predictors of heart failure (HF) onset and response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).
