Objectives. This study investigated prediction of arrhythmic events by the signal-averaged
electrocardiogram (ECG) and programmed stimulation in patients with nonischemic dilated …

Sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden death are particularly prevalent in
patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC). In contrast to patients with ischemic …

In idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC), the relation between the signal-averaged
electrocardiogram and ventricular tachycardia (VT) remains unclear. In this study …

This study examined the prognostic significance of the rate and length of non‐sustained
(NS) ventricular tachycardia (VT) on 24‐hour ambulatory electrocardiograms (ECG) …

Background: To evaluate the role of nonsustained ventricular tachycardias (NSVT) for the
prediction of major ventricular arrhythmias (MVA) in patients with idiopathic dilated …

OBJECTIVE This study was designed to evaluate the prognostic value of heart rate
variability for sudden death, resuscitated ventricular fibrillation or sustained ventricular …

Background: The prognostic role of asymptomatic nonsustained ventricular tachycardia
(NSVT) and programmed ventricular stimulation (PVS) in patients with idiopathic dilated …

Objectives. This study investigated the role of programmed ventricular stimulation (PVS) for
arrhythmia risk prediction in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC) and …

Arrhythmic risk stratification in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC) remains a major
concern. As the ventricles remodel in time, risk factors for arrhythmic death may change. A …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to provide a meta-analysis to estimate the
performance of 12 commonly reported risk stratification tests as predictors of arrhythmic …
