[Usefulness of temporal bicameral stimulation in the interruption of refractory ventricular tachycardia].
The occurrence of sustained ventricular tachycardia with worsening hemodynamic performance in patients with ischemic heart disease can represent a critical event when the arrhythmia, refractory to antiarrhythmic drugs, recurs after D.C. shock. In this case temporary DDD pacing can be a reliable alternative treatment.
