Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy diagnosis and management: a systematic review of clinical practice guidelines and recommendations with insights for future research.

ABSTRACT: Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is addressed in international guidelines and expert consensus statements. To assist clinicians in their routine practice and support decision-making, we performed a systematic review of the most relevant guidelines and recommendations for ACM diagnosis and management. Our search, covering MEDLINE, EMBASE, and resources from scientific societies over the last 10 years, identified two guidelines and three consensus statements that met rigorous inclusion criteria for detailed analysis. In the examined documents, key areas of agreement included the critical role of cardiac imaging for initial diagnosis and ongoing monitoring, genetic testing in index patients, ventricular arrhythmia management, catheter ablation indications, heart failure treatment strategie
