Video Summary

The EP Device Implant Registry is a national data collection tool designed to capture information about patients receiving ICDs and novel permanent pacemakers. Its purpose is to assess the characteristics, treatments, and outcomes of these patients to improve patient care and implement evidence-based clinical guidelines. The registry tracks compliance with the National Coverage Determination and provides benchmark outcomes reports. It is significant to population health as heart failure and sudden cardiac arrest are major causes of morbidity and mortality. The registry supports quality improvement efforts, research, guidelines, and stakeholder needs. It provides valuable data for assessing the quality of care and informing clinical practices.
