Diagnostic Tests (DO NOT EDIT)[1][2]
Class I |
"1. ECG, chest x-ray, and echocardiography-Doppler are recommended for the diagnostic evaluation of Ebstein’s anomaly in adult patients. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
Class IIa |
"1. Pulse oximetry at rest and/or during exercise can be useful in the diagnostic evaluation of Ebstein’s anomaly in adult patients. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"2. An electrophysiological study can be useful in the diagnostic evaluation of Ebstein’s anomaly in adult patients if a supraventricular arrhythmia is documented or suspected (subsequent radiofrequency catheter ablation should be considered if clinically feasible). (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"3. The following additional diagnostic tests can be useful for the comprehensive evaluation of Ebstein’s anomaly
in adult patients: |
a. Doppler TEE examination if the anatomic information is not provided by transthoracic imaging. (Level of Evidence: B) |
b. Holter monitoring. (Level of Evidence: B) |
c. Electrophysiological study for history or ECG evidence of accessory pathway(s). (Level of Evidence: B) |
d. Coronary angiography, when surgical repair is planned, if there is a suspicion of coronary artery disease, and in men 35 years or older, premenopausal women 35 years or older who have coronary risk factors, and postmenopausal women. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
