Abstract

Anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) is frequently used to terminate ventricular tachycardia (VT), however it is not always successful and may accelerate VT requiring defibrillation. REVRAMP is a novel concept of ATP that involves delivering pacing at a faster rate than VT, but instead of abruptly terminating pacing after eight beats, pacing is gradually slowed until VT continues or normal rhythm is restored. In a pilot study we show that REVRAMP can restore normal rhythm, and that if REVRAMP is unsuccessful, VT is not accelerated.
