ST-segment elevation and the Tpeak-Tend/QT ratio predict the occurrence of malignant arrhythmia events in patients with vasospastic angina

摘要

Background: ST-segment elevation (STE) and an increased Tpeak-Tend interval (Tp-e) have prognostic value for malignant arrhythmia events (MAEs) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and Brugada syndrome. Whether STE could predict MAEs and has an electrophysiological relationship with Tp-e in electrocardiogram (ECG) of vasospastic angina (VA) patients needs to be elucidated.
