Abstract
Background: Panoramic studies in patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy with a defibrillator (CRT-D) focusing on the etiology and indication are scarce. Besides, a controversy exists regarding requirement of a defibrillator in non-ischemic patients for primary prevention with CRT.
Methods: Annual trends of de novo CRT-D implantations from 2011 to 2020 and outcomes of those between January 2011 and August 2015 were analyzed from the Japan cardiac device treatment registry (JCDTR) and New JCDTR database.
Results: From 2011 to 2020, 8062 CRT-D recipients were registered, whose dominant indication was primary prevention of sudden cardiac death with a steady rate of about 70%. There was no significant temporal change of the proportion of non-ischemic patients being about 70% and 65% for primary and secondary prevention, respectively. Non-ischemic patients for primary prevention were associated with increased odds of appropriate ICD therapy [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR): 1.66; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-2.75; p  = .047] and reduced odds of any death (aHR: 0.66; 95% CI: 0.44-0.99; p  = .046) as compared to ischemic patients.
Conclusions: Proportion of non-ischemic etiology was much higher than that of ischemic one in the CRT-D cohort. Based on the higher odds of appropriate ICD therapy, non-ischemic patients for primary prevention appear to be prudently selected in Japan.
