Abstract
Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation is diagnosed in survivors of sudden cardiac death that has been caused by ventricular fibrillation without known structural or electrical abnormalities, even after extensive investigation. It is a common cause of sudden death in young adults. Although idiopathic ventricular fibrillation is a diagnosis of exclusion, in many cases only a partial investigation algorithm is performed. The aim of this review is to present a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation algorithm with a focus on diagnostic assessment of inherited arrhythmic syndromes and genetic background.
