Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether levels of inflammatory markers in circulating blood can correlate with risk for dangerous heart rhythms. Patients with systolic heart failure, which has been shown to increase risk for dangerous heart rhythms, will be enrolled. All subjects will have an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) in place, which allows regular evaluation of heart rhythm.
