Overview
Brief Summary
To prospectively evaluate if the analysis of genetic polymorphisms can be used to identify patients at risk of ventricular tachycardia.
To evaluate the influence of ICD-based diagnostic information on the long term treatment and management of primary prevention ICD-patients.
Detailed Description
Evaluate the positive predictive value of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes GNB3, GNAS and GNAQ as predictors of ventricular arrhythmia \<400 msec. 1. Evaluate the positive predictive value of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms as predictor for death, cardiac death and atrial fibrillation/flutter in the genes GNB3, GNAS, GNAQ and other SNPs involving signal transduction components which impact on the activity of cardiac ion channels. 2. Evaluate the best combination of genetic parameters, baseline data and follow-up data as predictor of primary endpoint, All cause Mortality, cardiac death and atrial arrhythmia. 3. Evaluate the usage of ICD-system diagnostics (battery status, impedance, pacing threshold, sensing) resulting in medical consequences\*. 4. Evaluate the usage of ICD-based patient diagnostics (arrhythmia, IEGM, heart frequency, %pacing, Cardiac Compass) resulting in medical consequences\*. 5. Evaluate the frequency of programming changes involving AF-prevention and AF-therapy algorithms. 6. Evaluate the frequency of pacing-parameter programming changes and the resulting medical consequences\*. * Medical consequences include: Hospitalization, medical interventions, medication, surgery, additional diagnostics and ICD-programming changes.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of Patients With Ventricular Arrhythmia <400 Msec. by GNAS c.2273C>T Genotype
Time Frame: 2 years
The GNAS c.2273C\>T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was one of seven SNP's analyzed. Patients with de novo ICD implants were genotyped and followed for up to 2 years. All episodes of arrhythmia \<400 msec. detected by the device were adjudicated by an independent committee. The number of patients with true arrhythmias \<400 msec were tracked by genotype.

Time Frame: 2 years
The GNAQ c.-909/-908GC\>TT single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was one of seven SNP's analyzed. Patients with de novo ICD implants were genotyped and followed for up to 2 years. All episodes of arrhythmia \<400 msec. detected by the device were adjudicated by an independent committee. The number of patients with true arrhythmias \<400 msec were tracked by genotype.
