A new substudy of the VANISH2 trial suggests that for patients with prior myocardial infarction and ventricular tachycardia (VT) who are eligible for sotalol, catheter ablation leads to better outcomes than antiarrhythmic drug (AAD) therapy.¹ For patients eligible only for amiodarone, efficacy was comparable, but amiodarone was associated with a significant increase in adverse events… View more

In the latest episode of Arrhythmia Academy’s Journal Club, Dr Serge Boveda (Clinic Pasteur, FR) is joined by Professor Andrea Sarkozy (Brussels South University Hospital, BE) to explore the evolving role of pulsed field ablation (PFA) in the treatment of ventricular arrhythmias.The discussion focuses on the potential of PFA as a novel energy source in the ventricle, examining its ability to… View more

A prespecified substudy of the VANISH2 trial suggests first-line catheter ablation is superior to sotalol for reducing arrhythmia events in eligible patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy and ventricular tachycardia (VT).¹ In patients ineligible for sotalol, ablation showed comparable efficacy to amiodarone but with a markedly better long-term safety profile.MethodologyThe VANISH2 (Ventricular… View more
