Key result

Standard ECG depolarization and repolarization abnormalities linked to higher SCD risk across diverse populations.

Implication

May refine SCD risk stratification beyond LVEF; leaves open prospective validation before guiding practice.

Structured PICO

Does the 12-lead electrocardiogram predict sudden cardiac death in various patient populations?

P
Population
General population, and patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), heart failure, cardiomyopathies, and inheritable arrhythmia syndromes
I
Intervention
12-Lead electrocardiogram (ECG) for risk stratification
O
Outcome
Sudden cardiac death (SCD)

The 12-lead ECG provides valuable prognostic information for sudden cardiac death risk stratification beyond left ventricular ejection fraction across various patient populations.

Cite This Study

Eranti et al. (2016) conducted a review in Sudden cardiac death. 12-Lead electrocardiogram was evaluated. Standard 12-lead electrocardiogram abnormalities of depolarization and repolarization are associated with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death across various populations and cardiac diseases.
