Clinical Trial Summary

This study will assess whether an implantable defibrillator will increase the likelihood of survival in patients who have had a heart attack, have abnormal test results from a 24 hour heart monitor, and who have low normal heart function.


Clinical Trial Description

The REFINE ICD trial will assess whether prophylactic ICD therapy, guided by non-invasive risk assessment tools, reduces mortality in MI survivors with better-preserved LV function. ;
