Overview

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) was first described by Reid et al in 1975. It was described as a familial cardiac arrhythmia that occurs in patients with structurally normal heart and causes exercise or emotion triggered syncope and sudden death with a distinguishing pattern of ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias. In 2001, cardiac Ryanodine Receptor gene (RyR2) mutations were first implicated in the pathogenesis of catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Subsequent experimental studies demonstrated that the abnormal calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum caused arrhythmias mediated by delayed afterdepolarizations and triggered activity.
