ABSTRACT:
The invention disclosed herein describes a method for determining the suitability of a person for extended electrophysiologic testing for ventricular tachycardia comprising monitoring the heart of a person to detect an episode of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia, determining a cycle length variability (CLV) value, and comparing the CLV value to a predetermined threshold number, and making a positive suitability determination if the CLV value is at or below the predetermined threshold number.
