"Sudden cardiac death is the most
common cause of death, yet most people are asymptomatic until
it's too late. We've been using the Microvolt T-Wave Alternans
Test to help us identify patients at risk for SCD who otherwise
would have escaped medical attention."
Ted Chow, MD
Ohio Heart Health Center, Cincinnati, Ohio
"Patients with a history of cardiomyopathy
are at high risk of SCD. ICDs are an effective treatment,
but they're far too costly to warrant giving one to every
patient. We need to find sub-groups of patients at the greatest
risk of SCD, who can most benefit from ICD treatment. The
Microvolt T-Wave Alternans Test helps us do that."
Ernst A. Raeder, MD

"To me, using the Microvolt T-Wave Alternans
Test instead of the standard EP method is a no-brainer, because
it can be done quickly and easily without risk of morbidity
to my patients. Most importantly, it's as effective a predictor
of SCD as an EP study-possibly even better."
