Abstract:
In the majority of patients with ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation drug treatment is not effective. The non-pharmacological treatment of this high-risk patients is of increasing importance. In Austria about 900 patients per year need non-pharmacological treatment of malignant ventricular arrhythmias. For this purpose 4 or 5 specialized centers would be necessary.
