Autonomic nervous system activity and the spontaneous initiation of ventricular tachycardia. ESVEM Investigators. Electrophysiologic Study Versus Electrocardiographic Monitoring Trial.
OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that neurohormonal activity contributes to the initiation of sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) as reflected in indices of heart rate variability (HRV). BACKGROUND Autonomic nervous system activity participates in experimental arrhythmias but clinical studies have been inconsistent. METHODS Holter electrocardiograms from 53 patients with VT were analyzed. Hear...
متن کاملAntiarrhythmic Drugs in the Electrophysiologic Study Versus Electrocardiographic Monitoring Trial
Background. The Electrophysiologic Study Versus Electrocardiographic Monitoring (ESVEM) study was designed to compare the accuracy of predictions of antiarrhythmic drug efficacy made by electrophysiological study (EPS) with those made by Holter monitoring (HM) combined with exercise testing. The present study describes the baseline characteristics and the response to drug efficacy tests of 486 ...

متن کاملElectrophysiologic effects and efficacy of recainam for sustained ventricular tachycardia.
was effective for controlling 64% of patients, with partial control achieved in an additional 13%. The incidence of side effects necessitating drug withdrawal was 15%. In the study of Hammill et al, most patients (60%) had no significant cardiovascular disease, while 74% of Kerr’s group had primary AF without associated heart disease. We had a lower success rate than these 2 previous groups, bu...
متن کاملIdiopathic sustained left ventricular tachycardia: clinical and electrophysiologic characteristics.
Electrophysiologic studies were performed in 16 patients 11 to 45 years old (mean 33 years) with idiopathic sustained (lasting more than 5 min) ventricular tachycardia (VT) originating from the left ventricle. Endocardial mapping during VT showed that the earliest site of activation was at the apical inferior portion of the left ventricle in 14 patients whose QRS morphology during VT showed a r...
