Although advances in treatment and patient management have considerably improved post-infarction prognosis, the risk of sudden cardiac death remains a major concern. Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is defined as an unexpected death occurring within one hour of the onset of symptoms, often of arrhythmic origin. In patients who have survived a myocardial infarction, sudden death represents a persistent threat. This risk is often associated with complications such as left ventricular dysfunction, malignant ventricular arrhythmias, and structural alterations of the myocardium, all of which can favor the development of fatal cardiac events. Among the risk factors identified, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, a history of ventricular arrhythmias and the presence of extensive scarring of the myocardium are particularly significant. Assessing the risk of SCD in post-infarction patients is
