Catheter Ablation of Haemodynamically Not-tolerated Electrical Storm in Structural Heart Disease
Sponsor: Beijing Anzhen Hospital
Summary
This is a multi-center, parallel-group, randomized, open-label trial evaluating the clinical outcome and efficacy of emergency catheter ablation versus conventional stepped-care strategies in patients with haemodynamically not-tolerated ventricular tachycardia (VT).

Conditions
Interventions
Catheter ablation
Emergency catheter ablation is defined as ablation performed within 48 hours of hospital admission
Stepped-care strategies
Patients randomized to the stepped-care strategy arm will receive treatment through a systematic, stepwise protocol beginning with anti-arrhythmic drugs, followed by sedation and anesthesia, and progressing to haemodynamic mechanical support devices if earlier treatments prove ineffective. Catheter ablation will be reserved as the final rescue intervention.
