Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Versus Optimal Medical Therapy In Patients With Variant Angina Manifesting as Aborted Sudden Cardiac Death (VARIANT ICD)

February 21, 2024 updated by: Kee-joon Choi
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ICD(Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) implantation on the top of optimal medical therapy in patients with variant angina manifesting as aborted sudden cardiac death reduces the incidence of the death from any cause compared with optimal medical therapy alone.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

All participants will be monitored over a span of five years and the time point of the year of last subject last visit. The term "year of last subject last visit" refers to the time point of the last visit for all participants. At this specific time point, event occurrence check will be conducted to determine the occurrence of endpoint events among all participants.

  • Prior catheter ablation for ventricular arrhythmia
  • Primary cardiac electrical diseases (long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia)
  • Prior pacemaker or Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator
