Implantable cardioverter defibrillator treatment in long QT syndrome patients: a national study on adherence to international guidelines.

Scandinavian cardiovascular journal : SCJ - 1 Apr 2017

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) treatment is effective among long QT syndrome (LQTS) patients at a high risk of sudden cardiac death. Previous studies show that the international guidelines are not always followed, and that risk stratification may be based on genotype rather than individual risk profile. We analysed data from the Swedish ICD & Pacemaker Registry and medical records to...
