摘要
Background: The effectiveness of the wearable cardioverter defibrillator (WCD) therapy in early post myocardial infarction (MI) patients remains uncertain. Methods: We analyzed the characteristics and outcomes of patients who received a WCD in the early post-MI phase. Results: Twenty-four patients were followed-up for 8 months (range, 4-16 months). Two patients (8.3%) received appropriate shocks. Left ventricular ejection fraction improved after the WCD therapy (P<0.01). Fourteen patients (58%) received an implantable cardioverter defibrillator at the end of the follow-up period. Conclusion: Early post-MI patients at high risk of sudden cardiac death may benefit from WCD therapy. (C) 2015 Japanese Heart Rhythm SocieLy. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
