Abstract

The follow-up of 1440 consecutive post-MI patients (68.9±10.9 years) with an LVEF≤40% was analyzed in 19 Italian hospitals to evaluate how many patients with clinical nonsustained VT and inducible sustained VT or VF underwent post-discharge risk assessment (RA). During 38 (range, 4–76) months follow-up, 611 patients (42.4%) qualified for and 294 (20.4%) effectively underwent RA combining LVEF assessment and Holter monitoring, 29 (2.0%) subsequently underwent programmed electrical stimulation and 19 (1.3%) received an ICD.
