Ventrikuläre Tachykardien unter Belastung

Exercise-induced ventricular tachycardia (EIVT) is typical and quite common in patients with long QT-Syndrome (LQTS) or catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Although patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) experience EIVT infrequently, the occurrence of EIVT is of great prognostic value in these patients. The following overview will introduce these cardiomyopathies and highlight the importance of their EIVT.
