Brief Summary:
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has been shown to be beneficial in multiple studies including heart failure. The goal of this clinical investigation is to gain additional information about how vagus nerve stimulation relates to abnormal heart rhythms. The outcomes of this study will help researchers design new therapies for patients that have complex and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.
Detailed Description:
This study is a non-randomized, prospective study in 6 patients with scar mediated ventricular arrhythmias who are scheduled to undergo a catheter ablation procedure. The study will last up to 30 minutes in the cardiac electrophysiology lab. Cervical VNS is performed percutaneously through the internal jugular vein during the patient's routine ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation procedure.
