Why the study?
Does amiodarone prevent spontaneous recurrence in patients with recurrent ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation?
Does amiodarone prevent spontaneous recurrence in patients with recurrent ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation?
Amiodarone is effective for long-term therapy of recurrent ventricular tachyarrhythmias, and induction of arrhythmia during therapy does not always predict clinical efficacy.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Amiodarone may reduce recurrences in refractory VT/VF; this Level 3 cohort finding leaves open the need for randomized confirmation.
Heger et al. (1981) studied this question.
