Abstract：It is over 70 years since early repolarization syndrome(ERS) was found for the first time. It has long been regarded as benign electrocardiographic variation and has never aroused enough attention until the relationship between ERS and malignant arrhythmiainduced sudden cardiac death was reported in 2008. How to screen the patients at high risk of sudden death is the hotspot of research. The information of ERS risk stratification can be provided by Genomics, ion channels, and Jwave morphology, an integrated application of which may work better. At present, ERS treatment is limited to secondary prevention, and radiofrequency ablation and ICD implantation may save the lives of patients.
