About this study

It is the aim of this register to document the development of therapies by implantation of Cardioverter/Defibrillators (ICDs) and/or Cardiac Resynchronization therapy (CRT)-Systems.

Read the detailed description

The possibility of evaluation of successes as well as of the complications of these therapies is needed to make quality management possible. Every German Center, implanting ICDs or CRT-devices, is encouraged to contribute to this register; data are collected by use of an electronical CRF.
