Article Synopsis
  • Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a genetic condition leading to heart muscle deterioration, mainly in the right ventricle, which can cause serious heart problems and arrhythmias, making diagnosis complex due to varying symptoms.
  • The study aimed to investigate the connection between the epsilon wave (EW) seen on ECG and late ventricular potentials (LPs) in ARVC patients, and how these relate to right ventricular (RV) changes.
  • The findings revealed that EW was significantly more frequent in ARVC patients with positive LPs, indicating a strong link between the presence of these signals and physical changes in the heart, with specific measurements of RV size and function further correlating with LPs presence.
