Beta-blocker therapy is associated with a lower incidence of syncope due to fast ventricular tachycardias among implantable cardioverter-defibrillator patients with left ventricular dysfunction: Results from a multicenter study
Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology Mar 25, 2018
Jimenez-Candil J, et al. - Herein, researchers determined the association between the beta-blocker therapy and the incidence of syncope in fast ventricular tachycardia (FVT) (cycle length [CL] 250–320 ms) occurring in implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) patients, excluding slow VTs and presuming that beta-blockers could reduce the occurrence of syncope due to FVTs. Beta-blockers were shown to be associated with a lower incidence of FVT-related syncope among ICD patients with left ventricular dysfunction.
