Differences in ventricular tachycardia inducibility in patients with Tetralogy of Fallot depending on the clinical indication for the electrophysiologic study
Abstract:Introduction
The arrhythmic risk stratification of patients with repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is still controversial. The performance of an electrophysiologic (EP) study before pulmonary valve replacement (PVR), regardless of patient's risk factors, is an extended practice in some centers that is not recommended in current guidelines. The aim of our study was to explore the differences in ventricular tachycardia (VT) inducibility in patients with TOF during programmed ventricular stimul… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
