Abstract
1. Whenever possible, use only MRI-compatible devices in patients with CHD. 2. CRT should be considered as an important therapeutic option in patients with systemic ventricular failure. 3. All intracardiac shunts should be eliminated prior to placement of an endocardial device. 4. In ACHD patients who do not respond to pharmacologic therapy for AF, catheter ablation of either all pulmonary veins or culprit veins should be considered. 5. β blocker therapy should be considered in all ACHD patients with systemic ventricular dysfunction and NSVT.
