Abstract
This study aims to identify predictors of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) who have undergone atrial baffle surgery with the Mustard or Senning operation.Patients with TGA and previous atrial baffle surgery are known to be at increased risk of SCD. Despite this, indications for insertion of an implantable cardiac defibrillator for primary prevention have not been established.Eighty-nine...
