Implantable Cardiac Device (ICD) and Pacemaker (PM) registry

This registry is supported in collaboration with EHRA and IRCAB (Instituto di Ricerche Cliniche Applicate e di Base) Foundation.

During the EHRA Summit 2008 (21-22 April) the assembly confirmed the importance of maintaining and increasing the activity of the European pacemaker and defibrillator registry, active since 1978. This initiative is conducted in collaboration with IRCAB (Instituto di Ricerche Cliniche Applicate e di Base) Foundation (Udine, Italy).

Advantages for investigators:

Online publication of national and European PM (Pacemaker) and ICD (Implantable Cardiac Device) implantation activity
Investigators will participate in the publication process
Creation of European Network for future collaboration

The registry leads to a comprehensive evaluation of these important therapies in all European countries

In order to have detail national information appears fundamental that every country could actively participate to the survey.

We thank in advance all the contributors.
