In general, the invention is directed to systems and techniques for assessing a risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmia in a patient by measuring one or more biochemical markers that reflect the health of a patient. Typically, the patient submits a sample, such as a blood sample, which is tested for one or more biomarkers. Based upon the results of the tests, the patient's risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmia may be assessed. When the patient is found to be at risk, the patient may receive an implantable medical device or drug therapy to address the risk.
L'invention concerne, de manière générale, des systèmes et des techniques d'évaluation d'un risque de tachyarythmie ventriculaire chez un patient par mesure d'un ou de plusieurs marqueurs biochimiques reflétant la santé d'un patient. Généralement, le patient soumet un échantillon, tel qu'un échantillon de sang, qui est analysé à la recherche d'un ou de plusieurs biomarqueurs. En fonction des résultats des analyses, le risque de tachyarythmie ventriculaire du patient peut être évalué. Lorsqu'il est déterminé que le patient est à risque, le patient peut recevoir un dispositif médical implantable ou un traitement médicamenteux afin d'éliminer le risque.
