Summary

The ABCD clinical study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT00187291) was designed to determine if a T-Wave Alternans (TWA) test is equivalent to an Electrophysiology Study (EPS) in predicting life-threatening heart rhythms in patients with ischemic heart disease, left ventricular dysfunction, and non-sustained tachycardia. The purpose of the ABCD Genetic sub-study is to identify genetic markers that predict TWA status and arrhythmia risk in this same population.
