Özet

Background: In this study, the main aim was to evaluate the relation of the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index to long-term mortality and proper shock therapy in patients with an implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) implanted for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Methods: This retrospective study group consisted of 773 patients treated with ICD for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. The long-term prognostic effect of the TyG index among tertiles was evaluated regarding mortality and appropriate ICD therapy. Results: In the adjusted model, the mortality rates were 14.0% (hazard ratio: 2.24; 95% CI: 1.42-6.88) in tertile 2 and 23.3% (hazard ratio: 3.88; 95% CI: 1.84-14.38) in tertile 3. Conclusion: The TyG index was found to be an independent predictive marker for both long-term mortality and appropriate ICD therapy.
