The Effect of Sacubitril/Valsartan on Device Detected Arrhythmias and Electrical Parameters among Dilated Cardiomyopathy Patients with Reduced Ejection Fraction and Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator
Journal: Journal of Clinical Medicine
Year: 2020

Sacubitril/valsartan therapy reduces sudden cardiac death (SCD) among patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) when compared to guidelines recommended doses of enalapril, however the mechanism is still not clear. There are few, contrasting results about the effect of sacubitril/valsartan on arrhythmias in the clinical context of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and there are no clinical data about its effect on measured implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) electrical parameters, such
