Patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) suffer an elevated risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Current guidelines for implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD), primarily based on LV ejection fraction (LVEF) are sub-optimal and have limitations.

Background:Serum troponins and CK-MB (creatine kinase-MB) are readily detectable and reliable cardiac-specific biomarkers of subclinical myocardial injury. This study explores the roles of cTnI (cardiac troponin I) and CK-MB in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).Methods:This Higher cTnI (per 0.05

Protection against the increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) due to ventricular arrhythmias is offered by the implantation of cardiac defibrillators. This is a single-centre retrospective study on the outcomes of all patients who had a transvenous defibrillator implant in 2015.
