Summary

Microvolt T-Wave Alternans (MTWA) is a relatively new non-invasive method for identifying patients at increased risk of sudden death from ventricular arrhythmias. MTWA can be measured during a routine exercise test, during pharmacologic stress or during cardiac pacing. Its clinical performance compares favorably with that of other non-invasive risk stratifiers and invasive electophysiologic studies. The purpose of the present study is to define the reproducibility of MTWA testing.
