Why the study?

Is endocardial catheter mapping of the left ventricle safe and effective in patients with ventricular tachycardia?

Structured PICO

Is endocardial catheter mapping of the left ventricle safe and effective in patients with ventricular tachycardia?

Population

37 patients (23 with recurrent sustained ventricular tachycardia originating from the left ventricle, and 14 stimulated for non-sustained ventricular tachycardia)

Intervention

Endocardial catheter mapping of the left ventricle

Outcome

Efficacy, safety and complicationssafety

Endocardial catheter mapping of the left ventricle is a safe and feasible method for evaluating ventricular tachycardia.

Discussion

No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.

Implication

LV endocardial mapping feasible without complications in this case; leaves open need for prospective trials before wider adoption.
