Risk Assessment of Sudden Cardiac Death in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Using CHA2DS2-VASc score

Journal of College of Medical Sciences-Nepal, 2023
Introduction Probability of sudden cardiac death is more in patient with atrial fibrillation than those without this condition. CHA2DS2-VASc score can be useful to predict the likelihood of sudden cardiac death among the patients with atrial fibrillation.

Cardiac Innervation and Sudden Cardiac Death [PDF]

Current Cardiology Reviews, 2009
The heart is extensively innervated and its performance is tightly controlled by the nervous system. Cardiac innervation density varies in diseased hearts leading to unbalanced neural activation and lethal arrhythmia. Diabetic sensory neuropathy causes silent myocardial ischemia, characterized by loss of pain perception during myocardial ischemia ...

Recommendations for genetic testing and counselling after sudden cardiac death: practical aspects for Swiss practice [PDF]

, 2018
There is a need to standardise, within a coordinated Swiss framework, the practical aspects of genetic testing and genetic counselling on possibly inherited cardiovascular disorders in relatives of a sudden cardiac death (SCD) victim.

A narrative review of inherited arrhythmogenic syndromes in young population: role of genetic diagnosis in exercise recommendations

BMJ Open Sport & Exercise Medicine
Sudden cardiac death is a rare but socially devastating event, especially if occurs in young people. Usually, this unexpected lethal event occurs during or just after exercise. One of the leading causes of sudden cardiac death is inherited arrhythmogenic

"Re-evaluation of variants of uncertain significance in patients with hereditary arrhythmogenic disorders"

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background Genetic diagnostics support the diagnosis of hereditary arrhythmogenic diseases, but variants of uncertain significance (VUS) complicate matters, emphasising the need for regular reassessment.

Systematic Review of the Genetics of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy: Potential Overlap With Sudden Cardiac Death and Arrhythmia‐Related Genes

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of epilepsy‐related death. SUDEP shares many features with sudden cardiac death and sudden unexplained death in the young and may have a similar genetic contribution.
