The role of the signal-averaged electrocardiogram in predicting the induction of sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia in high risk patients was assessed prospectively in 100 consecutive patients. Presenting diagnoses were syncope (38 patients), nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (24 patients), sustained ventricular tachycardia (25 patients) and sudden cardiac arrest (13 patients). Using programmed ventricular stimulation, 71 patients (group I) did not have and 29 patients (group II) did have inducible sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia. Using the signal-averaged electrocardiogram with filtering (6 dB/octave) at high pass corner frequencies of 67 and 100 Hz, the two groups were compared. |
