All patients completed the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) and underwent a psychiatric examination at baseline. 221 patients free of depressive symptoms at baseline were included into the final analysis. The assessment of psychiatric status was routinely repeated every 6 months as well as after the shock delivery.

The incidence of new-onset depression was significantly higher in patients after shock delivery (Shock Group), CRT non-responders and subjects with atrial fibrillation. The risk for a composite endpoint was higher in the Shock Group than subjects without an ICD intervention: 57.7% vs. 25.4% and in patients with new-onset depression compared to the population free of this disorder: 62.5% vs. 24.9% (all p < 0.001).
