Does Programmed Ventricular Stimulation improve risk stratification for ventricular arrhythmias in a primary prevention cohort of patients with ARVC?
Programmed Ventricular Stimulation provides incremental value for risk stratification of ventricular arrhythmias in ARVC patients, particularly those classified as low or intermediate risk by standard clinical calculators.
PVS significantly improved risk stratification above and beyond the calculator-predicted risk of VA in a primary prevention cohort of patients with ARVC, mainly for patients considered to be at low and intermediate risk by the clinical risk calculator.
Gasperetti et al. (2022) studied this question.
