Abstrakt:	Background: Among patients with congenital heart disease, those with single ventricles have the highest risk of early mortality. Sudden cardiac death is an important cause of death in this population. Understanding the risk factors for sudden cardiac events (SCE) in Fontan patients could improve prediction and prevention. Objectives: The goal of this study was to determine the prevalence of SCE and risk factors for SCE in the Fontan population. Methods: The Fontan Outcomes Registry Using CMR Examinations (FORCE) is an international registry collecting clinical and imaging data on Fontan patients. SCE was defined as: 1) cardiac arrest from a shockable rhythm; 2) need for emergent cardioversion/defibrillation; or 3) documented sustained ventricular tachycardia. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models estimated hazard ratios for predictors of SCE. Results: Our sample included 3,132 patients (41% female). The median age at first cardiac magnetic resonance was 14.6 years. SCE was experienced by 3.5% (n = 109) over a median follow-up time of 4.00 years. Of the 109 patients with SCE, 39 (36%) died. On multivariable analysis, NYHA functional class >II (HR: 4.91; P < 0.0001), history of protein-losing enteropathy/plastic bronchitis (HR: 2.37; P = 0.0082), single-ventricle end-diastolic volume index >104 mL/m 2 (HR: 3.15; P < 0.0001), and ejection fraction <50% (HR: 1.73; P = 0.0437) were associated with SCE. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that in patients with none of the above risk factors, the 4-year freedom from SCE was 99.5%. Conclusions: SCE occurred in 3.5% of the study population, and one-third of patients who experienced SCE died. Mild ventricular dysfunction and dilatation by cardiac magnetic resonance, NYHA functional class, and history of protein-losing enteropathy/plastic bronchitis were associated with SCE.
