However, management of myocardial infarction and heart failure has substantially evolved since that time. We investigated whether the estimated association between primary prevention ICD implantation in post-myocardial infarction patients with reduced LVEF and mortality reduction has changed over time.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We analysed individual participant data from 32 214 patients with LVEF \u226435% after myocardial infarction included in the PROFID pooled cohort, comprising 7477 patients carrying a primary prevention ICD (ICD patients) and 24 737 patients without an ICD (non-ICD patients). The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. Propensity scores were estimated using multivariable logistic regression including age, sex, LVEF, renal function, and diabetes, and overlap weighting was applied to balance treatment groups. Time period-specific analyses were performed across three prespecified time periods defined by inclusion year: 1995\u20132004, 2005\u201314, and 2015\u201320. Weighted cumulative mortality curves were generated for each time period. Temporal changes in the estimated association between ICD implantation and mortality reduction were assessed using a weighted Cox proportional hazards model.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 12 097 deaths occurred during a mean follow-up of 43.7 months. The estimated association between ICD implantation and mortality changed significantly across time (P for interaction &amp;lt;.001). In weighted time period-specific analyses, the estimated mortality reduction associated with ICD implantation progressively decreased over more recent periods. The hazard ratio for ICD vs non-ICD patients was 0.54 (95% CI 0.47\u20130.62; P &amp;lt; .001) in 1995\u20132004, 0.67 (95% CI 0.62\u20130.72; P &amp;lt; .001) in 2005\u201314, and 0.89 (95% CI
