Why the study?

Increasing risks of misdiagnosis resulting from inappropriate use of the 2010 International Task Force criteria prompted this critical review to highlight limitations, propose clinical solutions, and identify areas for improvement.

Implication

Reduces ARVC misdiagnosis risk in practice; challenges 2010 ITF criteria and extends recommendations for genetic testing and CMR.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Patients with suspected or diagnosed Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC), including classic, biventricular, and left-dominant variants, as well as pediatric populations.

This international expert report critically evaluates the 2010 ITF diagnostic criteria for ARVC to mitigate misdiagnosis risks and improve the identification of left-sided and pediatric phenotypes.
