Specific ECG findings - initial QRS fragmentation, prolonged S-wave upstroke as well as supraventricular arrhythmias - were frequently encountered in all SCN5AD1257N mutation carriers.
Of 15 SCN5A mutation carriers in our study, 14 (93%) manifested arrhythmia: supraventricular arrhythmia (13 of 15), including sick sinus syndrome (5 of 15) and atrial fibrillation (9 of 15), ventricular tachycardia (5 of 15), and conduction disease (9 of 15).
This study could neither confirm that EAT-V was predictive of recurrence of supraventricular arrhythmias in patients undergoing a hybrid AF ablation, nor that EAT-V was different between patients with paroxysmal AF and persistent and long-standing persistent AF.
