Study Summary
To evaluate whether T Wave Alternans can predict ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD) in a prospective epidemiologic natural history study. The prospective epidemiologic pilot study included 550 patients that had left ventricular dysfunction and no history of sustained ventricular arrhythmias. The primary hypothesis tested was whether there was an increased risk of having an arrhythmic event when T Wave Alternans was present in the patient. The secondary aims included comparing risk due to T Wave Alternans between the ischemic patients and non-ischemic patients and assessing whether T Wave Alternans remained an independent predictor of risk upon adjustment for other known risk factors for arrhythmic events such as ejection fraction, ventricular ectopy, NSVT, average NN interval, and RR interval variability. The study approach was a standard epidemiologic surveillance technique. The subject population consisted of individuals with Class I to III heart failure who will underwent a TWA and Holter monitor test and then were followed for up to two years or until arrhythmic events occured.
