Overview
Syncope triggered by exercise or emotion is the initial manifestation in the majority of the cases of catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. Sudden cardiac death during exercise or emotion may also be the initial manifestation in a relevant proportion of cases. Most of the patients have a positive family history of CPVT or sudden cardiac death.
History and Symptoms
Clinical presentation of Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is variable, including asymptomatic patients identified as a part of familial screening.
History
Patients with Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia may have a positive history of:
- Syncope during exercise or emotion
- Sudden cardiac arrest
Patients with Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia may have a positive family history of:
Common Symptoms
Common symptoms of catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia include:
- Syncope triggered by exercise or emotion[1][2][3]
- Sudden cardiac death during exercise or emotional stress[2][4][5]
