A Danish ICD-study in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease Resuscitated from Ventricular Fibrillation
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Coronary Artery Disease, Acute Myocardial Infarction, Ventricular Fibrillation, Ventricular Tachycardia, Sustained, Out-Of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
In brief
DanICD is a randomized, controlled study to with the aim to assess whether there is a benefit of ICD-implantation in patients with coronary artery disease (including acute myocardial infarction), who survive cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation/sustained ventricular tachycardia and undergo revascularization and with an LVEF above 35%.

Who can join
Age: 18 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.
You may qualify if…
- Patients with CAD and cardiac arrest due to VF/VT, where angiogram is performed with complete revascularization (PCI, CABG or hybrid coronary revascularization) before ICD implantation. Unfavorable artery for PCI (i.e., excessive vessel tortuosity or chronic total occlusion) or high-risk invasive treatment is not mandatory in order to achive complete revascularization.
- Age ≥18 years
- LVEF >35% at the time of discharge. The most recent LVEF assessment on which the current medical treatment will be based at the time of entry into the study will be used as baseline LVEF.
You may not qualify if…
- Non-ischemic cause of cardiac arrest (i.e. ion channel diseases, non-ischemic cardiomyopathy)
- Previous CABG within the last 3 months before index hospitalization
- Life expectancy less than 1 year or severe neurologic outcome
- Unable or unwilling to give informed consent
- Pregnancy
Where it is running
- Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet — Copenhagen, Denmark (enrolling)
