Does baroreflex sensitivity evaluation predict the risk of lethal arrhythmias in post-myocardial infarction patients?
Baroreflex sensitivity testing provides a safe, non-invasive method to assess autonomic balance and stratify the risk of lethal arrhythmias in patients with prior myocardial infarction.
Vanoli et al. (1994) studied this question.
