Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Other interventions - Intensified diagnostic and treatment measures following 1st appropriate ICD therapy
Other interventions - Standard follow-up

Active comparator: 2 - Standard follow-up in patients without appropriate ICD therapy

Experimental: 1 - Following 1st appropriate ICD therapy, the patients have to be called to the clinic for intensified clinical diagnostics and, if necessary or useful, intensified therapy.


Other interventions: Intensified diagnostic and treatment measures following 1st appropriate ICD therapy
* Assessment of general health status (weight, BP, NYHA)
* Laboratory tests (hemoglobin, Nt-proBNP, creatinine, GDF-15)
* Echocardiography (LVEF, LVEDD, mitral regurgitation)
* Non-invasive ischemia evaluation
* Coronary angiography (if indicated by ischemia evaluation)
* Upgrade to CRT, if indicated
* Ventricular ablation (if indicated: VT storm, slow VT, bundle branch reentry)
* 24 hrs ECG Holter (Heart rate variability)
* Further treatment (if applicable)
* Changes in ICD settings, or medication

Other interventions: Standard follow-up
Standard follow-up in patients without appropriate ICD therapy
