Outcome
Primary Outcome Measures
1. The null hypothesis is that all cause mortality in the treatment (Implantable cardioverter defibrillator =ICD) and control group is identical. The alternative hypothesis is that all cause mortality in the ICD group and control group is different. [undefined]
Secondary Outcome Measures
1. Type of death, Arrhythmic events, Serious cardiac and cerebral interventions, [undefined]
2. Device-related complications, Hospitalizations, Quality of life [undefined]
