French National Registry Tracking Adults With Tetralogy of Fallot and Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators

What this Trial Is About

This research aims to collect and analyze data from patients with tetralogy of Fallot who have an implantable cardioverter defibrillator ICD for either primary or secondary prevention. The study is a national French registry that includes both retrospective cases before 2010 and prospective cases after 2010 with ongoing follow-up. The goal is to better understand ventricular arrhythmias and complications related to ICDs in this specific population. Patients included in this registry are those with tetralogy of Fallot who have an ICD implanted. French centers that perform ICD implantations are contacted yearly to include all eligible patients. The study collects all baseline electrocardiograms ECG and reviews endocavitary electrograms EGM. Events are centrally reviewed and adjudicated to ensure consistent data collection. Participants are followed prospectively with annual updates to monitor the occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias and ICD-related complications. The registry tracks these outcomes for an average of one year after enrollment. This observational study involves no intervention beyond routine clinical care and aims to gather comprehensive data on this patient group over time.
