Intracardiac electrograms (IEGMs) recorded by implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are essential for arrhythmia diagnosis and ICD therapy assessment. Short IEGM snapshots showing 3-10 s before arrhythmia detection were added to the Biotronik Home Monitoring system in 2005 as the first-generation IEGM Online. The RIONI study tested the primary hypothesis that experts' ratings regarding the appropriateness of ICD therapy based on IEGM Online and on standard 30 s IEGM differ in <10% of arrhythmia events.
