Specialist note IQTIG The reference range indicates the results at which a facility can be assumed to provide good quality of care, although deviations are possible. The reference range thus sets a benchmark for the assessment of facilities. A result outside the reference range is initially considered conspicuous. This usually entails an analysis by means of a statement procedure. It should be noted that a quality result outside the reference range is not synonymous with a lack of quality of the facility in the quality aspect considered here. The deviation can also be due, for example, to faulty documentation, medical specificity of the patient collective or individual cases. The assessment of quality is carried out within the framework of the defined procedure in the comments procedure.

The choice of system for defibrillator implantation is assessed according to the current guidelines on pacemaker and cardiac resynchronisation therapy, on the diagnosis and treatment of heart failure, and on the management of patients with ventricular arrhythmias and the prevention of sudden cardiac death of the European Society of Cardiology (Brignole et al. 2013, Glikson et al. 2021, McDonagh 2021, Priori et al. 2015). In individual cases, there may be justified deviations from the guidelines if defibrillators are implanted, e.g. as part of studies or when testing new procedures. - Brignole, M: Auricchio, A: Baron-Esquivias, G: Bordachar, P: Boriani, G: Breithardt, O-A: et al.
