Prolonged QTc Interval and Risk of Sudden Cardiac Death in a Population of Older Adults [PDF]
ObjectivesThis study sought to investigate whether prolongation of the heart rate-corrected QT (QTc) interval is a risk factor for sudden cardiac death in the general population.BackgroundIn developed countries, sudden cardiac death is a major cause of ...

Abstract Background Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) represent one of the four pillars of heart failure (HF) pharmacological therapy. Objective The study aims to clarify SGLT2i antiarrhythmic effect on patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in terms of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias (AAs and VAs) reduction ...

Malignant ventricular arrhythmias induction by programmed electrical stimulation of the right ventricular outflow tract only during type 1 brugada ECG maximization [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The role of electrophysiology study in Brugada syndrome (BS) sudden cardiac death risk stratification remains controversial and seems to depend on the phenotypic expression of the channelopathy.

Heart Screenings in Young Athletes Identify Risk Factors for Sudden Cardiac Arrest [PDF]
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in the young is the leading cause of death in the U.S. afflicting over 300,000 individuals each year. SCA is also the leading cause of death in young athletes during sports participation, and typically the result of ...

Abstract Aims A novel marker left atrioventricular coupling index (LACI) has been proved to be associated with cardiovascular events in patients without history of cardiovascular disease. However, the studies on cardiac magnetic resonance‐derived LACI in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients are limited, and the prognostic value of LACI has still ...

Sudden cardiac death in children and adolescents (excluding Sudden Infant Death Syndrome)
Sudden death in the young is rare. About 25% of cases occur during sports. Most young people with sudden cardiac death (SCD) have underlying heart disease, with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and coronary artery anomalies being commonest in most ...
