  20. Notable Changes in 2008 ACC/AHA/HRS Guidelines • ICD recommendations are combined into a single list because of overlap between primary and secondary indications. • Primary prevention ICD indications in nonischemic cardiomyopathy are clarified using data from SCD-HeFT (i.e., ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies and LVEF ≤35%, NYHA II-III) for support. • Indications for ICD therapy in inherited arrhythmia syndromes and selected nonischemic cardiomyopathies are listed. • MADIT II indication (i.e., ischemic cardiomypathy and LVEF ≤30%, NYHA I) is now Class I, elevated from Class IIa. • EF criteria for primary prevention ICD indications are based on entry criteria for trials on which the recommendations are based.

  21. Notable Changes in 2008 ACC/AHA/HRS Guidelines • The need for optimization of medical therapy before CRT implantation is emphasized. • 7. Independent risk assessment preceding ICD implantation is emphasized, including consideration of patient preference. • 8. Optimization of pacemaker programming to minimize unneeded RV pacing is encouraged. • 9. Pacemaker insertion is discouraged for asymptomatic bradycardia, particularly at night. • 10. A section has been added that addresses ICD and pacemaker programming at end of life. • 11. Emphasized primary SCD prevention ICD recommendations apply only to patients receiving optimal medical therapy and reasonable expectation of survival with good functional capacity for >1 year.
