[Pathology of the cardiovascular system and early ventricular repolarization syndrome]

An attempt was made for the first time to determine the prevalence of the early ventricular repolarization syndrome (EVRS) in cardiovascular diseases in order to specify the clinico-electrocardiographic significance of the given electrophysiological phenomenon and its interrelationship with the rate of rhythm and heart conduction disorders. The changes discovered cast doubt on the generally accepted concept of the benign character of the EVRS and orient to the necessity of pharmacological correction in more frequent arrhythmogenic episodes in EVRS carriers suffering from cardiovascular pathology. Some diagnostic methods (electrocardiography, pharmacological tests) have been evaluated and suggested as optimal for diagnosing the EVRS.
