Overview
Common risk factors associated with VT/ VF include prior history of hypertension, Prior MI, ST-segment changes at presentation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Risk factors of occurrence of VF before primary PCI in STEMI patients include alcohol consumption, preinfarction angina, anterior infarct location, complete coronary occlusion at the time of coronary angiography. Risk factors associated with VT/ VF after primary PCI include lower blood pressure, higher heart rate, poor coronary flow at the end of the procedure, incomplete resolution of ST elevation. Risk factors associated with monomorphic VT early after CABG include prior MI, ventricular scar, LV dysfunction, placement of a bypass graft across a noncollateralized occluded coronary vessel to a chronic infarct zone.
