Digitalis Therapy Is Associated With an Increased Risk of <scp>ICD</scp> Shock Delivery and Device Revision
In this study in patients undergoing ICD or CRT implantation, an association of digitalis therapy with an increased risk of device revision was observed. Of note, mortality or severe cardiovascular events did not differ between both groups. Furthermore, an increased risk of ICD shock delivery was observed in digitalis-treated patients.
