pubmed:abstractText |
In patients with heart failure (HF), the association between sudden death and arrhythmic pattern at 24-h Holter monitoring [number of ventricular premature contractions per hour (VPCs/h) and presence of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT)] has previously been investigated with conflicting results. Since both VPCs/h and NSVT disregard the time course of arrhythmic events, we developed a new index based on the short-term peak rate of ectopies and investigated its prognostic power in HF patients.
