Methods: This is a sub-analysis of the "Living with an ICD" patient survey (25-item questionnaire) organized by the European Heart Rhythm Association between 12 April 2021 and 5 July 2021 in ten European countries. Results: There were 410 (22.7%) patients from Poland and 1399 (77.3%) from other European countries. A total of 51.0% of Polish patients reported improvement in their quality of life compared with 44.3% in other countries (p = 0.041). Remote monitoring was three times more often utilized in other countries than in Poland (66.8% vs. 21.0%, p < 0.001). While 78.1% of Poles felt well informed before ICD implantation compared with 69.6% of subjects from other countries (p = 0.001), they were less familiar with the ICD deactivation process than others (38.9% vs. 52.5%, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Despite the less frequent use of remote monitoring and gaps in end-of-life issues, Polish ICD recipients reported more favorable quality of life and a higher level of information received before device placement than patients in other European countries.Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona 22023-01-0120232023-01-01Articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://ddd.uab.cat/record/280600https://dx.doi.org/urn:doi:10.3390/ijerph20065045reponame:Dipòsit Digital de Documents de la UABinstname:Universitat Autònoma de BarcelonaInglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Aquest document està subjecte a una llicència d'ús Creative Commons.
