Current noninvasive risk stratification methods offer limited prediction of arrhythmic events when selecting patients for ICD implantation. Our laboratory has recently developed a signal processing metric called Layered Symbolic Decomposition frequency (LSDf) that quantifies the percentage of hidden QRS wave frequency components in signal‐averaged ECG (SAECG) recordings. The purpose of this pilot study was to determine whether LSDf can be predictive of ventricular arrhythmia or death in an ICD patient cohort.
