Clinical Guideline for Preimplantation Genetic Testing in Inherited Cardiac Diseases

Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) is a reproductive technology that selects embryos without (familial) genetic variants. PGT has been applied in inherited cardiac disease and is included in the latest American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology guidelines. However, guidelines selecting eligible couples who will have the strongest risk reduction most from PGT are lacking. We developed an objective decision model to select eligibility for PGT and compared its results with those from a multidisciplinary team.
