Catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia in patients with structural heart disease is associated with ... again significantly higher in patients with ischemic heart disease (62.4%), when compared ...

The scarred portion of the heart can become electrically unstable and the electrical instability can produce a life-threatening heart arrhythmia called ventricular tachycardia (fast heartbeat), which ...

Background: Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited cardiomyopathy characterized by high risks of sustained ventricular tachycardia (sVT) and sudden cardiac death. Identifying patients ...

Cardiac causes typically involve emboli originating from sources like endocarditis, left ventricular thrombus, intracardiac right-to-left shunts, and atrial myxoma. Non-cardiac right-to-left shunts, ...

The findings of this important work are that abnormal ECGs that are associated with higher risk of sudden cardiac death are predicted to have almost no relationship with left ventricular ejection ...
