WASHINGTON -- Researchers made a strong case that earlier was better when it comes to catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardias (VTs) in people with implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs).
Primary prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) equipped for antitachycardia pacing (ATP) offered fewer first device shocks but perhaps at a cost, the APPRAISE ATP randomized trial ...
