The use of ICDs has increased, and more than 5000 ICDs are implanted every year in Spain, with a rate of 116 implants per million inhabitants, a figure well below the European average of 269 implants per million inhabitants.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> It is increasingly frequent to find patients carrying ICDs in the final stages of disease, which has led a number of authors to recommend a screening routine in palliative care programs to detect ICD carriers and proceed accordingly.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> In these patients, the permanence of these active devices can prolong unnecessary suffering, given that the patients frequently receive discharges from them, which are painful and decrease the quality of life.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> Furthermore, these patients are often treated by professionals who are not sufficiently prepared to address these conditions. The present document is aimed primarily at doctors but is also directed to nurses and healthcare professionals who interact with patients who carry these devices. Given that a large majority of these patients are over 65 years of age,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> this document is focused on elderly patients; however, the decision-making process is similar in younger ICD carriers in end-stage situations.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a></p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Previous studies have shown that patients receive little information related to the decision-making process and management of ICDs in the final stages of life. Specifically, few patients with ICDs receive information from their reference professionals on the benefits and dangers of these devices in the advanced stages of disease and, as a result, their deactivation is considered in only a few of these patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3,6,7</span></a> The communication of sufficient information is not only a patient's right and an ethical obligation for the physician but it also allows for patient participation in the complex clinical decisions that are undertaken at the end of life. It also facilitates the adaptation and the perception of control by reducing uncertainty and allows for the possibility of planning with real objectives. It is not just a matter of reporting the diagnosis and prognosis of a specific disease but rather the discovery of patients’ values and preferences, including patients in the decision-making process and making them active in the final process of life.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> From an ethical standpoint, the limitation of the therapeutic effort consists in not applying extraordinary and/or disproportionate measures for the established therapeutic goal in a patient with a poor vital prognosis and/or poor quality of life. In this context and given that ICD deactivation does not imply the immediate death of the patient, deactivation should be considered as a form of limiting the therapeutic effort. Advance directives encourage patient participation in decision making in situations where they cannot express their wishes themselves. A recent study showed that patients who had prepared advance directives received care associated with their preferences.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> The directives also represent an opportunity for dialog with patients, facilitating clinical decisions, promoting a feeling of control by the patient and improving the clinical care relationship.</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In an effort to cover the gap in Spain in the management of ICDs in the final stages of life, the Spanish Society of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology, the Spanish Society of Palliative Care and the Geriatric Cardiology Section of the Spanish Society of Cardiology have developed the present document. The objectives of this document are as follows: (1) To describe the ethical, legal and clinical issues related to the deactivation of ICDs in patients in terminal conditions. (2) To highlight the importance of communication and a multidisciplinary approach. (3) To provide decision-making schemes to guide clinicians in caring for these types of patients.</p></span><span id="sec0010" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0030">Methodology</span><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The present consensus was developed in the meeting “Palliative Care in Cardiology”, held in Madrid in November 2012.

This approach assumes that the health status of elderly patients depends on various influences beyond the manifestations of the disease itself. These influences include the social sphere, psychological and mental health and environmental factors. Principles similar to these can be used for patients in the final phases of life, regardless of age. The usefulness of the integrated geriatric assessment in the decision-making process is two-fold. On one hand, it informs us of the prognosis of patients in terms of the disease and patient functionality. On the other, it informs us of the degree of competence for making such complex decisions. One of the key issues in geriatric assessment is the evaluation of the functional condition, given that it is one of the main factors that determine the prognosis.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10–13</span></a> A number of scales, such as the Katz Index of Independence, can be useful when performing this assessment.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0070"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">14</span></a> The components of the geriatric assessment also include the traditional assessment of disease symptoms and their treatments, a cognitive, affective, functional, socio-economic and spiritual assessment, especially in regard to advance directives. This geriatric assessment should be performed before ICD placement when treating geriatric patients and/or in each of the episodes of obvious worsening of the disease, especially if the patient requires hospitalization.</p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0040">Conversations with the patient: objectives</span><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">To achieve an open discussion in which the patient, after understanding the disease and its outcome, takes an active role in directing the therapy objectives, improving the final quality-of-life and patient satisfaction results.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0075"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span></a> However, few ICD carriers discuss the issues related to device deactivation with their physicians or are aware that such deactivation is a correct and ethically valid option.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3,16</span></a> A study performed in hospices in the USA showed that the majority of ICD carriers with terminal diseases had not be counseled on its deactivation.

The following are a number of key issues that need to be treated in patient discussions:<ul class="elsevierStyleList" id="lis0005"><li class="elsevierStyleListItem" id="lsti0005"><span class="elsevierStyleLabel">(1)</span><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Patients should understand that although treatment with an ICD is a therapeutic option whose fundamental objective is to prevent sudden death of arrhythmic origin, as heart disease progresses or when the final phase life is reached by another coexisting disease, the prognosis can be determined by issues other than the risk of sudden death. Patients should also be aware that, in the preagony phases, the device can emit numerous electrical shocks in an attempt to prevent cardiac arrest, with the resulting suffering and detriment to the patient's quality of life, at a time when well-being and peace are more important than a few more hours of life. Thus the preventive objective for placing the ICD can cease to be of importance at a certain point in time and instead could even become a source of discomfort.</p></li><li class="elsevierStyleListItem" id="lsti0010"><span class="elsevierStyleLabel">(2)</span><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">When the survival time is determined by the disease itself, deactivation of the electrical shock function is legal and ethically correct; it will not result in a reduced life expectancy and is not a form of euthanasia.</p></li><li class="elsevierStyleListItem" id="lsti0015"><span class="elsevierStyleLabel">(3)</span><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It should also be clear from the start that the decision of a possible deactivation of the device, which should be discussed thoroughly with the medical team, is ultimately the decision of the patient or the person in whom the patient delegates the care, in the event that the decision-making ability is lost. This decision can also change over time depending on the circumstances and the essential therapeutic objectives as the disease progresses. The patient can decide to undergo a deactivation that was initially rejected or reactivate a previously deactivated function.</p></li><li class="elsevierStyleListItem" id="lsti0020"><span class="elsevierStyleLabel">(4)</span><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It is important to properly explain that there are numerous treatment options that depend on the device and that it is possible to deactivate only a few of them.

The results of this decision should always be reflected in the patient's medical history.</p></span><span id="sec0025" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0045">Patient decision-making competence</span><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Doctors should document whether, in their opinion, the patient is capable of understanding the discussion and whether they have sufficient emotional stability to be competent in the decision to disconnect the ICD. Underlying depression can distort judgment and can result in an inappropriate request to disconnect all functions of the ICD. In these cases, a specific psychiatric evaluation and psychological support measures should be considered before making decisions. Religious support should also be offered in cases where the patient considers it necessary for making a decision due to their deep convictions and beliefs. The degree of competence required for the decisions varies<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0095"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a>; that required to understand and reach a decision to deactivate a device such as the ICD would be similar to that of participating in a clinical trial. Occasionally, competence evaluation can be a complex process. There are standardized tools available for such a process (the MacArthur Competence Assessment Tool, the Sitges document),<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0100"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">20,21</span></a> especially designed for patients with cognitive disorders. We consider that the importance of the decision merits leaving documented evidence of the information procedure performed and the patient consent (or that of their representative) procedure. <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0005">Table 1</a> can be of use in guiding the steps of the conversation.</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0005"></elsevierMultimedia></span><span id="sec0030" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0050">Communication and multidisciplinary approach</span><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The discussion with the patient about possible conditions in which ICD deactivation can be contemplated should be conducted prior to the implantation of the device (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0010">Table 2</a>),<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0110"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">22–24</span></a> and the options of ICD deactivation should be included in the informed consent prior to implantation. In each device control visit, any changes in the patient's health, new diagnoses and worsening of previously known diseases should be considered. When the patient's deterioration in health becomes very significant, a change in the therapeutic approach can be decided, focusing the objectives of the therapy on the patient's well-being and even electing the option of no resuscitation.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0105"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span></a> In this stage of the disease, it is essential to discuss the deactivation of the ICD. At the same time, the communication must be very fluid among the various specialists, from the clinician in charge of the patient (family doctor to home support teams, internist, geriatrician and cardiologist) up to the electrophysiologist, to avoid giving conflicting information and so that the entire care team shares opinions and criteria as if from a single contact. It does not seem appropriate that the electrophysiologist should be the only doctor responsible for the deactivation decision; therefore, it is crucial to identify the reference professional for the patient. Although the technical implementation of the modifications to the characteristics of the ICD is commonly performed in the arrhythmia unit, it should always be preceded by a diagnostic procedure of the end-stage condition and the suitability of de/reprogramming the device.</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0010"></elsevierMultimedia></span><span id="sec0035" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0055">Multilevel process: the role of the family</span><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The decision shared with loved ones is very important. On many occasions in the advanced phases of the disease, the patients, especially the elderly, tend to lose their desire to control the condition and trust more in their loved ones, delegating to them the complex decisions. The family adopts an even more relevant role in situations where the patient is cognitively incapacitated and there are no prior instructions. The family should be instructed so that they can make decisions while attempting to base these decisions on what they consider to be the patient's prior will and not following their own wishes. When there is no representative chosen by the patient or legally appointed and there is no agreement among the family members, the Ethics Committee should be consulted. A potentially problematic situation can arise when there is disagreement between the will that an incapacitated patient stated a long time before their current disease and a different approach perceived by the family to act in the patient's current situation. The wishes of the patient always have priority over those of the family.</p></span><span id="sec0040" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0060">Logistics of the deactivation</span><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall"><a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a> describes in the form of an algorithm the complete logistics of the deactivation process. Throughout the process, it should be understood that the information concerning the implant center and the model and manufacturer of the device appear on the card that all ICD carriers have with them at all times. One of the first steps to follow before ordering the deactivation of the ICD is to determine whether the patient is truly in the position to make this decision freely and knowledgeably. In certain cases, the doctor who wants to order the deactivation may deem it necessary to first consult or request the participation of an electrophysiologist or cardiologist. This might be required if the doctor's level of understanding of the operation of the ICD is insufficient, thus limiting the information the doctor can provide. It is recommendable in cases where the doctor believes that, after the deactivation of certain therapies, significant clinical deterioration might occur that requires adjusting the cardiac medication (for example, when treating a patient with ventricular tachycardia and/or bradycardia that can worsen the functional class, palpitations or syncope).</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0005"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0085" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The doctor who most closely follows the patient should be the one responsible for giving the order to deactivate the ICD, always in accordance with the patient's wishes, and this decision should be recorded in writing before the deactivation.

If the medical personnel or technician responsible for performing the deactivation prefers not to perform the procedure, another qualified individual who has no such objection should be designated.

This is achieved by deprogramming the detection and/or all therapies. However, ICDs usually have other types of programmed therapies to remove tachycardia that are not painful. These therapies stimulate the ventricle faster than the tachycardia in an attempt to remove the tachycardia (known as “antitachycardia pacing” or more commonly by its initials ATP). If the ventricular tachycardia is rapid and has the potential to cause sudden death, deactivating the ATP might have the objective of avoiding extending the patient's life. In contrast, slow ventricular tachycardia does not usually cause death directly and instead worsens the symptoms of heart failure. In these cases, deactivating the electric discharges and leaving the ATP is recommended.</p></li><li class="elsevierStyleListItem" id="lsti0065"><span class="elsevierStyleLabel">(b)</span><p id="par0130" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">There is usually no reason to deactivate the pacemaker function because these patients are generally not dependent on the pacemaker function.

There are rounded magnets designed specifically for this purpose (commonly referred to as “donuts”).
