If VT is not treated, it can lead to cardiac arrest, which is when the heart stops beating. In fact, VT is the most common cause of sudden cardiac arrest. Unfortunately, ablation also destroys healthy heart tissue in the process. Current ablation procedures destroy heart tissue and tend to worsen heart function.

Nearly two thirds in the rhythm control strategy were on amiodarone and only 14 had catheter ablation. That is how the strategy of rhythm control by catheter ablation was thought of as a possible better strategy, though technically more challenging, not uniformly effective and having significant risk of complications.

He required multiple defibrillations within a period of a few hours. This time, the arrhythmia did not spontaneously terminate — but rather degenerated to VFib, requiring defibrillation. Some episodes of PMVT would terminate spontaneously — but on many occasions, the PMVT degenerated to VFib, requiring defibrillation.
