3.2.2.1 Appropriate shocks
Appropriate shocks occurred in 18 patients: 6 patients in the reduced therapies group (7%) and 12 patients (13%) in the conventional therapy group (p=0.171). The new programming was not significantly associated with a reduction in appropriate shocks (HR 0.425, 95% CI 0.137-1.319, p=0.139) (table 2).
