Abstract

Indeed, the reported incidence of appropriate therapies delivered by ICD is significantly higher as compared with arrhythmic mortality of patients with tetralogy of Fallot. We read with interest the article by Waldmann et al[1] reporting interesting data on incidence of appropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapies in a nationwide cohort of patients with tetralogy of Fallot.[2] In patients with tetralogy of Fallot, absolute annualized rates of sudden cardiac death range from 0.1% to 0.3%.[2],[3] These figures are significantly lower as compared with both ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies. In conclusion, we believe that these interesting data about device therapies on a contemporary cohort of patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot raise 2 stimulating issues.

Abstract

: The recent outbreak of 2019 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 is having major repercussions on healthcare services provision in Italy and worldwide. Data suggest the virus has a strong impact on the cardiovascular system, and cardiac imaging will play an important role in patients affected by coronavirus disease-2019. Although paediatric patients are mildly affected, they represent a clear accelerator in spreading the virus, and healthcare workers are at higher risk of infection. The aim of this position paper is to provide clinical recommendation regarding the execution of imaging investigations for the cardiac diagnostic work-up of paediatric patients with suspected or confirmed infection.
