  • Title: Recurrence of ventricular tachycardia degeneration by low-energy implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks: a case report.
    Author: Cagli KE, Guray U, Akpinar I, Sen N, Aras D, Topaloglu S.
    Journal: J Electrocardiol; 2010; 43(1):68-70. PubMed ID: 19446839.
    Abstract:
    Despite their proven efficacy at reducing mortality in selected patients, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators have some proarrhythmic effects. In this report, we present a case of a patient with recurrent ventricular tachycardia degeneration to ventricular fibrillation by appropriate low-energy implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks.
