Exercise-induced ventricular tachycardia

Abstract: Exercise tests were done on all patients referred to us because of ventricular premature beats. Exercise-associated ventricular tachycardia was seen in three of these patients. Once therapy for the arrhythmia was begun in two patients, we performed serial exercise tests, attempting to provoke the arrhythmia again. In the third patients, who was pregnant, we advised against strenuous physical activity and will exercise her post partum to determine whether therapy is warranted. We have shown that exercise testin… Show more

“…22 The efficacy and dose adjustment of the antiarrhythmic therapy is confirmed by exercise stress testing. [29][30][31] In the patient reported here, the possibility of structural heart disease was ruled out by appropriate testing, including transthoracic echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, cardiac catheterization, coronary angiography, and endomyocardial biopsy. The electrocardiogram was within normal limits.…”

“…
Exercise-induced ventricular tachycardia (VT) in children has been reported in your journal [1] and in other publications [2,4,5] . We should like to describe two children in whom VT was depressed during effort, but became most pronounced during the recovery period .

“…While other studies have examined the significance of exercise-induced ventricular tachycardia in the pediatric age group, the efficacy of graded exercise stress testing as either a precipitating stimulus or a predictive tool in recurrent pediatric SVT has been minimally explored. No data related to the efficacy of graded exercise stress testing in eliciting SVT have been published (2)(3)(4)(5)(6). The purpose of the present study was to assess the efficacy of graded exercise stress testing in eliciting SVT among patients with an established or presumed SVT predisposition.…”
