OBJECTIVES: This study sought to assess the impact of baseline heart failure (HF) burden on survival with primary implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) among Medicare recipients.
BACKGROUND: Survival after primary ICD implantation may differ between trial and Medicare populations.
METHODS: Linking data from the CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) ICD registry and the Medicare files (2005 to 2009), we identified primary ICD recipients age ≥66 years with ejection fraction ≤35%. Number of previous HF hospitalizations (prev-HF-hosp) and length of hospitalization prior to implantation were used to define HF burden. Crude all-cause mortality was estimated. Adjusted hazard ratios (HR) were derived from Cox models.
RESULTS: Of 66,974 ICD recipients (73% men, 88% white, mean age 75 years), 11,876 died (average follow-up = 1.4 years), with 3-year mortality of 31%. Among patients with no prev-HF-hosp, 3-year mortality was 27% compared with 63% in those with ≥3 prev-HF-hosp (adjusted HR: 1.8). Among patients with same-day implantation, 3-year mortality was 25% compared with 53% in those with >1-week hospitalization days prior to implantation (adjusted HR: 1.9). Mortality at 3-year follow-up among the 31,685 ICD recipients with no prev-HF-hosp and same-day implantation (low HF burden) was similar to that in trials (22%).
CONCLUSIONS: Nearly one-third of Medicare ICD recipients died within 3 years, reflecting a population with more advanced age and disease than seen in trial populations for primary prevention ICD. Nearly one-half of Medicare recipients had a low HF burden and had a survival similar to trial ICD recipients. Future research is warranted to understand the effectiveness of primary ICD implantation among Medicare beneficiaries with heavy HF burdens.
