Can a novel prediction score predict the first episode of major arrhythmic events in patients with non-dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy?
A novel prediction score incorporating clinical, imaging, and genetic factors can predict major arrhythmic events in patients with non-dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy.
In NDLVC, male sex, non-sustained VT, LVEF < 45%, septal and ring-like LGE, high-risk genotypes, and myocardial inflammation predicted the first episode of MAE by 60 months.
Peretto et al. (Fri,) studied this question.
