摘要
The most common substrate for ventricular tachycardia is a postmyocardial infarction scar. Classifying patients as being at high or low risk for fatal arrhythmias allows the physician to identify appropriate treatments for the high-risk patient without exposing the low-risk patient to unnecessary treatment-related risks.
