A novel tool for arrhythmic risk stratification in desmoplakin gene variant carriers
19 Jun 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Pathogenic desmoplakin (DSP) gene variants are associated with the development of a distinct form of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy known as DSP cardiomyopathy. Patients harbouring these variants are at high risk for sustained ventricular arrhythmia (VA), but existing tools for individualized arrhythmic risk assessment have proven unreliable in this population. METHODS: Patients from the...
