2017 AHA/ACC/HRS Guideline for Management of Patients with Ventricular Arrhythmias and the Prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

Recommendations for Surgery and Revascularization Procedures in Patients With Ischemic Heart Disease

Class I
1. Patients with sustained VA and survivors of SCA should be evaluated for ischemic heart disease, and should be revascularized as

appropriate (Level of Evidence: B-NR). 2. In patients with anomalous origin of a coronary artery suspected to be the cause of SCA, repair or revascularization is recommended(Level of Evidence: C-EO).
