Secondary Prevention Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator for Cardiac Arrest Survivors on Hemodialysis in Japan ― A Nationwide Claims-Based Analysis ―
This nationwide analysis revealed significantly lower secondary prevention ICD use in HD patients compared to non-HD patients, with consistent implementation patterns across Japan's healthcare system. These findings provide important baseline evidence for developing consensus regarding ICD therapy and underscore the need for future prospective studies to guide optimal ICD selection in this population.
