Overview
Patients who are inducible at the time electrophysiologic study have an eightfold increased risk of aborted sudden cardiac death compared with those patients who are not inducible.[1] Some groups have advocated that programmed electrical stimulation (PES) be performed to induce ventricular fibrillation for risk assessment in Brugada patients [2][3] Other groups have not reproduced the predictive value of these tests,[4][5] so the value of programmed electrical stimulation (PES) and inducibility remains controversial.
