Abstract

This is a PDF file of an article that has undergone enhancements after acceptance, such as the addition of a cover page and metadata, and formatting for readability, but it is not yet the definitive version of record. This version will undergo additional copyediting, typesetting and review before it is published in its final form, but we are providing this version to give early visibility of the article. Please note that, during the production process, errors may be discovered which could affect the content, and all legal disclaimers that apply to the journal pertain.

Efficacy of intrinsic antitachycardia pacing for ventricular tachycardia refractory to conventional burst pacing: A case series

“…Only four case reports demonstrate the efficacy of iATP with a device equipped with this function. [2][3][4][5] In these four case reports, eight VTs in five patients were successfully treated with the iATP algorithm. However, the efficacy of iATP for VT refractory to conventional burst pacing has been reported in only one case report.…”

“…Thus, the efficacy and safety of iATP in real‐world settings remain unknown. Only four case reports demonstrate the efficacy of iATP with a device equipped with this function 2–5 . In these four case reports, eight VTs in five patients were successfully treated with the iATP algorithm.…”

“…Intrinsic antitachycardia pacing (iATP) is a novel automated ventricular ATP algorithm that designs ATP sequences based on the analysis of prior failed ATP. Computational models and several case reports have shown the efficacy of iATP for ventricular tachycardia (VT) refractory to conventional ATP therapies 1–5 . However, real‐world data on the efficacy and safety of iATP are lacking.…”

“…Computational models and several case reports have shown the efficacy of iATP for ventricular tachycardia (VT) refractory to conventional ATP therapies. [1][2][3][4][5] However, real-world data on the efficacy and safety of iATP are lacking. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of iATP for VTs refractory to conventional burst pacing in a case series at our hospital.…”

Intrinsic antitachycardia pacing for patients with multiple ventricular tachycardias

“…Although there have been case reports of iATP showing its efficacy in clinical settings, 6 , 7 there are still no reports demonstrating the effectiveness of iATP against multiple incidences of VT in the same patient. iATP is a novel algorithm that can deliver arrhythmia-specific therapy.…”
