Video Summary

The EP Device Implant Registry is a national resource that helps improve care for patients receiving implantable cardiac devices. It collects standardized patient, procedure, treatment, and outcome data to support quality improvement, benchmarking, research, and guideline development. Originally launched in 2006 as the ICD Registry, it was created to support CMS coverage and has since expanded to include pediatric ICDs, lead procedures, leadless pacemakers, and conduction system pacing such as His bundle and left bundle branch pacing. The registry captures both primary and secondary prevention ICD implants, generator changes, explants, and related procedures. It is especially important because it addresses serious conditions like heart failure, ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac arrest. Participating organizations use registry reports and dashboards to compare performance, monitor adherence to measures, and identify opportunities for better outcomes.
