Abstract excerpt
Early repolarization (ER) has been accepted as a benign ECG variant for decades. Two seminal studies challenged this notion and have demonstrated that ER pattern is associated with an increased risk of arrhythmic and cardiac mortality in patients with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF) and in the general population. Recent clinical studies demonstrate its varying impact as an arrhythmogenic substrate on...
