Recommendations for diagnostic evaluation of sudden cardiac death in patients with coronary anomalies

Class I (Level of Evidence: C)

* Cardiac stress imaging during physical exercise is recommended in addition to cardiopulmonary exercise test in patients with anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery with an interarterial course to confirm/ exclude myocardial ischemia.

Class I (Level of Evidence: C)

* Cardiac stress imaging during physical exercise is recommended in addition to cardiopulmonary exercise test after surgery in patients with anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery with a history of aborted cardiac arrest.
