^aParenthesis values are operating rate range of the specific LVAD when not specified in the report.

After LVAD, the S-ICD was implanted after the LVAD; Before LVAD, the S-ICD was implanted before the LVAD; EMI, electromagnetic interference; Hz, rpm/60; LVAD, left ventricular assist device; NA, non-available; NIDCM, non-ischaemic dilated cardiomyopathy; NSVT, non-sustained ventricular tachycardia; S-ICD, subcutaneous implantable cardiac defibrillator; T-ICD, transvenous ICD.
