Sudden Cardiac Arrest Associated with Early Repolarization
N Engl J Med 2008;358:2016-2023
• ER more prevalent in idiopathic VF survivors
(206) vs. controls (412)
• 31% vs. 5% (p<0.001)
• ER positive individuals more likely to have
further ICD therapy during follow-up (HR 2.1)

Early Repolarization in Population
• Prevalence 6-13 % - decreases with age
• Benign Prognosis
– Inferior J-point elevation ≥ 0.2mV – HR 3.15 – only 0.3% pop
• Usual ER pattern and VF – absolute risk v. low
– Idiopathic VF <45 years – 3/100,000 p.a.
– ER pattern with J waves – 11/100,000 p.a.

Early Repolarization in Athletes
• Prevalence 20-50%
– Frequently associated with ST elevation and rapidly ascending ST segment
– More common in lateral leads
• Benign Prognosis (probably)
– Small cohorts have not shown increased risk
– Single case-control sudy showed association with athletic SCD
• Prevalence increases with period of training
– 37.2% to 52.7% after period of training1
• Association with structural athletic changes (probably)
– No association with LV remodeling1
– J waves associated with increased LVIDd, max. wall thickness and LV mass2

Conclusions
• ERS – here to stay – undoubted clinical signals
• Discernible patterns and stratified risk (clinical)
• ECG diagnosis – but ECG patterns e.g. PR interval familial anyway
• Need better phenotyping tools to provide platform for genetic studies
