Pursuing the "Holy Grail"
Over the past decade, several large, randomized trials have allowed us to better define the appropriate population for primary prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) placement, saving thousands of lives every year. MADIT II (Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial II) and SCD-HeFT (Sudden Cardiac Death in Heart Failure Trial) have demonstrated a survival benefit of 31% and 23% over 20 and 45.5 months follow-up, respectively.
