The main cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD) is structural heart disease, mostly
atherosclerotic heart disease, which represents approximately 85% of all cases …

Patients with ischemic heart disease and left ventricular systolic dysfunction are at high risk
of sudden cardiac death. However, most of these high-risk patients will never develop …

Currently, there are three prognostic indicators of ventricular electrical instability: long-term
ambulatory ECG recording, programmed electrical stimulation and the signal-averaged …

During the past decade there has been considerable interest in ECG monitoring to identify
patients at high risk of sudden cardiac death. Several studies have examined the predictive …

The identification of patients at high risk of sudden cardiac death is one of the greatest
challenges for cardiologists. Non-invasive methods have, characteristically, low predictive …

Objective This study evaluated the prognostic value of electrocardiogram (ECG)-based
predictors in the primary prevention of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) among ischemic …

Sudden cardiac death, frequently due to ventricular arrhythmias, is a significant problem
globally. Most affected individuals do not arrive at hospital in time for medical treatment …

To determine if the signal-averaged (SA) electrocardiogram (ECG) predicts the occurrence
of sustained ventricular arrhythmia and sudden death after acute myocardial infarction, 182 …

Sudden cardiac death is caused mainly by ventricular tachyarrhythmias, which occur as a
result of interplay between the autonomic nervous system, myocardial substrate, and …

About half of all heart disease deaths are caused by cardiac arrest, making it one of the
major causes of mortality in prosperous countries. When confronted with potentially fatal …
