Factor Information
Data ID 1299
Factor lower BMI
Description PPVI (Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation) related VT (ventricular tachycardia) was detected in 6 patients (7.5%). These patients had a lower BMI (17.5±2.0 vs. 23.1±6.6, P=0.04).
Biomarker NA
Classification E11 (physiological factor - physical sign)
Association
Application prognosis
Objective To explore the correlation between the BMI and the occurance of PPVI related VT.
p Value 0.04
Conclusion PPVI may be associated with transient VT in the acute peri-procedural period. Patients of smaller size may be more susceptible. All patients were managed conservatively and none of the patients had a recurrence, which is suggestive of a transient phenomenon.
