Timely Treatment

Summary The prevalence of smartwatches and other wearable medical technology has been increasing yearly. These watches offer a sensitive tool for capturing cardiac dysrhythmias and can lead to patients seeking earlier medical advice. This case report highlights the importance of clinicians seeking and using the information provided by wearable medical technology which in this case resulted in both the timely treatment of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia and lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract We report a case with Ebstein’s anomaly and pulmonary atresia with sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia in a patient without a ventriculotomy history. In the low voltage area between the atrialised right ventricle and hypoplastic right ventricle, there was a ventricular tachycardia substrate and slow conduction. The tachycardia circuit was eliminated by a point catheter ablation at the area with diastolic fractionated potentials.
