Prognosis of programmed ventricular stimulation in adult patients with syncope of unexplained origin: A historical cohort.

Background: Programmed ventricular stimulation (PVS) during electrophysiological study (EPS), is a globally accepted tool for risk stratification of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in some specific clinical situations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognosis of ventricular arrhythmia induction in a cohort of patients with syncope of undetermined origin (SUO).

Methods: This is a historical cohort study in a population of patients with SUO referred for EPS between the years 2008-2021.
