Abstract
Primary-prevention ICDs are indicated for most patients with LVEF ≤35%. Some patients improve their LVEF to >35% during the life of their first ICD. In present practice, when the battery is depleted, ICDs most often are replaced regardless of LVEF. In patients with recovered LVEF who have never received appropriate ICD therapy, the utility of ICD generator replacement remains unclear.
