Arrhythmic risk stratification in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy
Key result
Novel calculator estimates 5-year arrhythmia risk in ARVC to guide individualized ICD placement.
Why the study?
To summarize the evidence underlying a novel 5-year arrhythmic risk calculator algorithm in ARVC and discuss its clinical implementation for individualized SCD prevention.

Cite This Study
Gasperetti et al. (2023) conducted a review in Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). Risk calculator algorithm was evaluated. A novel risk calculator algorithm estimating the 5-year risk of arrhythmias in patients with ARVC has been introduced and validated to guide individualized risk stratification and ICD placement.
