Prognostic Factors and Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator Outcomes in Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis: A Comprehensive Retrospective Study
In conclusion, our data suggest that ICD therapy may not provide a significant overall survival benefit in older TTR-CA patients with impaired pump function; thus, prospective studies are warranted before any changes to clinical practice are considered. Key predictors of mortality included reduced ejection fraction and elevated cardiac biomarkers. Additional prospective studies are needed to clarify the role of ICDs in treatment strategies for patients with TTR-CA.
