Co-morbidity was identified in administrative registers of hospitalization and drug prescription from pharmacies. Co-morbidity burden was defined as the number of pre-existing non-ICD indication-related co-morbidities including atrial fibrillation, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic renal disease, liver disease, cancer, chronic psychiatric disease, and peripheral and/or cerebrovascular disease, and divided into four groups (co-morbidity burden 0, 1, 2, and ≥3). Through Cox models, we assessed the impact of co-morbidity burden on appropriate ICD therapy and mortality. Increasing co-morbidity burden was not associated with increased risk of appropriate therapy, irrespective of implant indication [all hazard ratios (HRs) 1.0-1.4, P = NS]. Using no co-morbidities as reference, increasing co-morbidity burden was associated with increased mortality risk in PP-ICD patients (co-morbidity burden 1, HR 2.1; comorbidity burden 2, HR 3.7; co-morbidity burden ≥3, HR 6.6) (all P < 0.001) and SP-ICD patients (co-morbidity burden 1, HR 2.2; co-morbidity burden 2, HR 3.8; co-morbidity burden ≥3, HR 5.8).
