Relationship between left ventricular dyssynchrony and scar burden in the genesis of ventricular tachyarrhythmia
2018
Background
Left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) has poor predictive value for ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VT). Other parameters such as LV dyssynchrony (LVD), and LV scar burden have also been individually associated with VT, but the interplay of these factors in the genesis of VT has not been explored. This retrospective study sought to evaluate the relationship between LVD and imaging characteristics of the myocardial substrate in predicting VT.
