Brief Summary

INTRODUCTION: Sudden cardiac death is one of the most important reasons of death at industrialized countries. Despite its importance, nowadays Clinical Guidelines are not as extended as expected, with respect to indications for primary prevention defibrillator implantation, following MADIT II and MUSTT criteria, especially at Latin American countries. OBJECTIVES: This Project is designed with the purpose of providing tools to help spreading primary prevention by the means of clinical evidence on real risk of death in this group of patients. REGISTRY DESIGN:

  • retrospective (at stage 1); prospective (at stage 2)
  • multi-center (minimum 25-30 centres)
  • international (Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Chile, Mexico and Venezuela)
  • non randomized.
  • Sample size: at screening about 12.500 patients and 962 patients at treatment stage REGISTRY DEVICES: CE marked (Conformité Européenne) single-chamber, dual-chamber or CRT (Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy) implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Prevalence of patients with MADIT, MADIT II and MUST at Latin American countries

    Primary Outcome at Stage 1: Determine prevalence of patients with myocardial infarction and high risk of sudden death at Latin America, that fulfill inclusion criteria Primary Outcome at Stage 2: Compare MACE development in patients that receive ICD implantation vs patients that receive other type of treatment (non ICD)

    Patients that suffered from MI in the last 3 years and during the enrollment period

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Study incidence of Arrhythmic mortality and serious arrhythmic events, evaluated through remote monitoring

    5 years (until end 2018)

Study Arms (2)

ICD implantation

Patients that receive an ICD implantation (non randomized, by clinical decision) will enter this group

Procedure: Implantable Cardio Defibrillator (ICD),

Non ICD implantation

Patients that do not receive ICD implantation (non randomized, by clinical decision); they can receive any other treatment (e.g. antiarrhythmic drugs)

Interventions

Standard ICD implantation (as per clinical decision)

Also known as: CE approved devices
ICD implantation

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients at Latin American countries that fulfill MADIT, MADIT II and/or MUSTT criteria.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients that had Acute Myocardial Infarction (\>40 days post-AMI) documented with the presence of Q-wave or cardiac-specific enzymatic markers of myocardial necrosis (CK-MB/troponin), occurred within 3 years previous to enrollment / after June 2008.
  • Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) ≤40% post-revascularization (if no revascularization, measurement performed \<3 months previous to patient enrollment, \>40 days post-AMI and \>3 months post-revascularization -if applicable-).

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient with an implanted ICD
  • \<18 years old
  • Pregnant or breast feeding women
  • Patients that are already participating in other Investigational Study or Registry
  • Non signed patient informed consent or refusal from patient's reference physician to patient participation
  • Patient inability to comply with protocol (assist to scheduled follow-ups), due to: residence displacement out of center's activity area; unstable geographical situation or at very long distance from the center; unstable medical and/or psychological condition
  • Cardiac transplanted (or in transplant waiting list)
  • Severe Heart Failure (or other co-morbidity: cancer, renal failure, etc.)
  • Life expectancy lower than 1 year
