1.13 ARVC and CPVT

In this episode, we review arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) and catecholaminergic polymorphic VT (CPVT). Other than epsilon waves at the end of QRS complexes, what other features on ECG characterize ARVC? What are the echocardiographic and cardiac MRI findings of ARVC? Is diltiazem used in atrial fibrillation in patients with ARVC? What right ventricular ejection fraction makes an ARVC patient eligible for ICD placement? Can patients with ARVC participate in competitive sports? What is the difference between the bidirectional VT of CPVT and the bidirectional VT of digoxin toxicity? Can patients with CPVT participate in competitive sports? Tune in for answers to these questions.
