Late potentials, heart rate variability, and electrocardiography

Low-amplitude, high frequency components in the terminal QRS-complex (so-called late potentials) are thought to arise from diseased myocardial tissue that forms the “electrophysiologic substrate” for ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Recording of late potentials is now commercially available in several systems and may possibly become clinically routine in the near future. Increased attention has been given recently to heart rate variability as an indicator of conditions of the autonomic nervous system that might trigger ventricular tachyarrhythmias. The value of late potentials and heart rate variability for identification of patients at risk for developing life-threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias is discussed, as are the other applications and limitations of both methods.
