Patient Decision Aid for an ICD (primary prevention, non-CRT)

The intervention group will receive the PtDA, which provides a lay summary that outlines the facts, risks, benefits (including probabilities), specific to the option of an implantable defibrillator or the option of medical management to prepare them for consultation with the physician.
