INDICES OF CONTRACTILITY OF THE LEFT VENTRICLE MYOCARDIUM SEGMENTS CORRESPONDING TO ARRHYTMOGENIC ZONES ARE HIGHLY SPECIFIC MARKERS OF RESULTS OF ANTIARRHYTHMIC DRUG TESTING IN PATIENTS WITH PAROXYSMAL VENTRICULAR TACHYCARDIAS
Abstract
To compare the location of sites of impaired left ventricle contractility with the non invasively detected sites of sources of paroxysmal ventricular tachycardias, as well as to assess the potentiality of use of the data obained for prediction of the result of antiarrhythmic drugs testing, 31patients were followed.
