NCT01547208 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 590

Last updated 2020-04-14

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess whether the burden of untreated non-sustained ventricular tachycardias (VTs), or episodes treated with anti-tachycardia pacing, correlates with appropriate implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) shock therapies and to evaluate if the timing of radiofrequency VT ablation affects the prognosis of ICD recipients.

Conditions

  • Ventricular Tachycardias

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Immediate radiofrequency ablation of ventricular tachycardia

Radiofrequency ablation of ventricular tachycardia is performed immediately after an appropriate ICD shock

PROCEDURE

Radiofrequency ablation of ventricular tachycardia

Radiofrequency ablation of ventricular tachycardia will be performed after an arrhythmic storm occurs
