Sudden Cardiac Death Due to Ventricular Arrhythmia in Acute Coronary Occlusion: Potential Roles of the Sinoatrial Nodal Artery and Conus Artery
VT/VF arrest due to acute coronary occlusion was more common in those with proximal disease and there was an increased incidence of SANa and/or CA involvement in non-LAD infarcts. Short-term mortality was higher in patients with cardiac arrest post-AMI, but beyond 30 days there was no significant difference.
