Implantable cardioverter defibrillator therapy in chronic kidney disease: a meta-analysis
Europace, 10/19/09
Korantzopoulos P et al. – This meta–analysis suggests that CKD is associated with increased mortality in patients who receive ICD therapy. Undoubtedly, prospective studies are needed in order to elucidate the impact of different stages of CKD in this setting. Given that the CKD prevalence is rapidly increasing, there is an imperative need for better risk stratification of ICD therapy candidates.
