Primary Prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death

A D. Beaser; Adam S. Cifu, MD; Hemal M. Nayak. Keywords: rhythem dysorder; sudden cardiac death; primary prevention; LVEF; heart failure; ventricular fibrillation

ABSTRACT

Ventricular arrhythmias range from benign premature ventricular contractions to ventricular fibrillation and can be asymptomatic or have sudden cardiac death as the first manifestation. Sudden cardiac death is a major public health problem, accounting for 50% of all cardiovascular death.1 Although a plurality of sudden cardiac death occurs in the general population with no apparent cardiac risk factors, the risk is greatest in patients with LVEF of less than 30%, clinical heart failure, prior aborted cardiac arrest, or coronary artery disease.2
