abstract = {Illness perceptions (IP), as measured by the Brief Illness
Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ), and adverse childhood
experiences (ACE) have been shown to affect the physical and
psychological well-being in different patient populations.
However, little is known about IP and ACE in patients with
an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). Our
objectives were to investigate the dimensional structure and
to evaluate correlates of the BIPQ in ICD patients. 423
patients with an ICD were prospectively recruited. We
conducted a principal component analysis to determine the
dimensional structure of the BIPQ. Associations between ACE,
other sociodemographic and clinical variables, and IP were
analysed using a multivariable linear regression. We
identified a two-factor structure (I = Consequences, II =
Control) of the BIPQ. Among others, a higher number of ICD
shocks in the past (0.21, $95\%$ CI = 0.01-0.41, p = 0.036),
low physical activity (-2.16, $95\%$ CI = -4.37 to -0.37, p
= 0.045), more frequent ACE (0.56, $95\%$ CI = 0.08-1.22, p
= 0.030), ICD shock-related concerns (0.75, $95\%$ CI
0.62-0.89, p < 0.001), and primary ICD indication (-2.29,
$95\%$ CI -4.47 to -0.11, p = 0.039) were significantly
associated with more threatening IP. The identification of
those variables might lead to more precise interventions
targeting maladaptive IP in this vulnerable patient
population.},
