Incidence, determinants, and prognostic implications of true pleomorphism of ventricular tachycardia in patients with implantable cardioverter-defribillators: a substudy of the DATAS Trial.
BACKGROUND The occurrence of monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (M-VT) with >1 QRS morphology during the same episode (pleomorphism [PL]) or in different episodes (multiple morphologies [MM]) has been described through ECG. Implantable cardioverter-defribillator (ICD) electrograms (EGs) provide the opportunity to analyze virtually all spontaneous M-VT episodes. We sought to study the incidence...
متن کاملArrhythmias in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension; A Narrative Review of the Current Literature
Incidence and prognostic relevance of supraventricular arrhythmias were evaluated in nine studies. These studies investigated patients with different forms of pulmonary hypertension. Supraventricular arrhythmias were more often found in patients with group two pulmonary hypertension. Common findings in these patients were elevated right atrial pressure and diameters and reduced tricuspid annula...
متن کاملPrognostic value of right ventricular myocardial performance index in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery
Abstract Background: Right ventricular myocardial performance index (RVMPI) is a Doppler–derived parameter of non-geometrical ventricular function that measures both systolic and diastolic functions of the right ventricle. The aim of this study is to compare prognostic value of RVMPI with global RV function in patients undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG). Methods: In a longitudinal ...

SUZUKI, K. Clinical Features of Sustained Ventricular Tachycardia among Various Underlying Heart Diseases. Tohoku J. Exp. Med., 1990, 162 (1), 15-26 Clinical findings of 52 patients with sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) were analyzed to assess the importance of the underlying etiology. Among patients with organic heart diseases, no differnces were found in the VT rate, the incidence of sy...
متن کاملPrognostic Implications of Nonsustained Ventricular Tachycardia in High-Risk Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND The prognostic significance of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is incompletely resolved. METHODS AND RESULTS The study group comprised 160 patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), of whom 94 patients had 24- to 48-hour ambulatory monitoring preimplant. ICDs were interrogated and ambulatory ECGs monitored ...
