Resultat: Ur analysen av datamaterialet framträdde tre huvudteman: en ny vardag, ett förändrat liv och livsavgörande begränsning med inopererad defibrillator med tio underteman. Konklusion: Majoriteten av patienterna upplevde oro, rädsla och ångest i sin vardag. De behövde utveckla nya strategier för att kunna hantera sitt nya liv i form av rutiner och planering för att minska stress i vardagen.
