Rationale and Design of the OPTION Study: Optimal Antitachycardia Therapy in ICD Patients without Pacing Indications

Abstract: The study will evaluate the relative performance of DC in comparison to SC ICDs in terms of inappropriate shock reduction and patient outcome.

“…The design and main results of the OPTION trial have been published 7 8 . In brief, this prospective, randomised (1:1), multicentre, single-blinded (patients), parallel-group trial enrolled 462 patients eligible for ICD therapy for primary or secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death (left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40% despite optimal tolerated heart-failure therapy).…”

“…All patients received an ICD device (PARADYM DR and CRT-D models; Sorin Group Italia S.r.l., Saluggia, Italy) featuring the discrimination algorithm PARAD1 (Figure 1). 17,18 PARAD1 allows the differentiation of supraventricular from ventricular arrhythmias based on ventricular rate stability, AV association analysis, long cycle search, rate onset analysis, and chamber of origin in the case of 1:1 tachycardia (Supplementary Figures S1 and S2).…”

“…Moreover, additional factors should be considered when choosing single-versus dual-chamber ICD settings, including the risk for complications (23), as well as the detrimental effect of unnecessary ventricular pacing (24). Therefore, the potential superiority of dual-chamber over singlechamber ICD settings in terms of inappropriate shocks can be assessed only in the light of optimal tachyarrhythmia discrimination algorithms combined with optimized bradycardia parameters for minimized ventricular pacing (25).…”
