Identifying coronary artery disease patients at risk for sudden and/or arrhythmic death: remaining limitations of the electrocardiogram

B Asatryan, L Roten, T Reichlin et al. Keywords: sudden death; arrhythmic death; electrocardiogram; CHD

ABSTRACT

The important study concerning the easy-to-use electrocardiogram (ECG) markers of sudden and/or arrhythmic death (SAD) in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients as presented by Chatterjee et al.1 is a weighty contribution to an intricate and still rather puzzling topic. They implicate that in CAD patients, contiguous Q waves, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), QRS duration, and JTc prolongation provide incremental predictive value beyond traditional risk factors for SAD. While this study is unique in providing easily measurable markers that improve SAD risk stratification, it also...
