Overview

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia must be differentiated from Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, Short-coupled ventricular tachycardia (SC-torsade de pointes [TdP]), Long QT syndrome and Andersen-Tawil syndrome.

Differentiating [Disease name] from other Diseases

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia must be differentiated from other diseases that cause syncope, ventricular tachycardia, and sudden cardiac death, such as:

• Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia
• Short-coupled ventricular tachycardia (SC-torsade de pointes [TdP])
• Long QT syndrome
• Andersen-Tawil syndrome

Differentiating [disease name] from other diseases on the basis of [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]

On the basis [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3], [disease name] must be differentiated from [disease 1], [disease 2], [disease 3], [disease 4], [disease 5], and [disease 6].
