Why the study?
Does pharmacological intervention with lidocaine or acebutolol alter the relationship between repetitive extrasystole threshold and ventricular fibrillation threshold in dogs?

This preclinical study demonstrates that while repetitive extrasystole threshold and ventricular fibrillation threshold are correlated at baseline, antiarrhythmic drugs can affect them non-parallelly.

Questions equivalence of RET and VFT under antiarrhythmics in canines; leaves open translation to human arrhythmia vulnerability assessment.
Jaillon et al. (1980) studied this question.
