- W2223367221 abstract "Sudden death is responsible for 20-80% of total mortality in heart failure patients. The arrhythmia risk stratification is weak, mainly in idiopathic cardiomyopathy. Several pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic forms of treatment are currently being used aiming lower mortality rates. Class I antiarrhtymic drugs are very proarrhtymic in these patients and should not be used. The amiodarone’s role in preventing death is not well defined. Several nonarrhytmic drugs have shown to decrease mortality: ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, spironolactone. Among the nonpharmacologic measures that are being used, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators have shown to be the most effucaceous. Clinical trials have shown that cardioverter-defibrillators decrease arrhythmic and total mortality in primary and secondary prevention in heart failure patients. Another terapheutic method that can be eventually used is the radiofrequency ablation. In summary, heart failure patients present high risk of ventricular arrhytmias, the risk stratification is not optimal, but several pharmacologic and non pharmacologic forms of treatment are being able to decrease ventricular tachyarrhytmias and mortality in these patients.
