3.2.2.2 Appropriate ATP
Appropriate ATPs occurred in 20 patients: 5 patients in the reduced therapies group (6%) and 15 patients (16%) in the conventional group (p=0.025). Appropriate ATPs were reduced by the new programming (HR 0.276, 95% CI 0.093-0.817, p=0.020) (table 2). Adjusted model for age, gender, ischemic HF, AF and standard HF medication (ACEI/ARB/ARNi, beta-blockers and aldosterone antagonists) showed similar results (HR 0.276 95% CI 0.092-0.828, p=0.022). No other variable was independently associated with appropriate ATP.
