The Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial: MADIT Provides the Basis for Developing Therapeutic Strategy for Patients With Severely Depressed Ventricular Ejection Fraction With Nonsustained Ventricular Tachycardia

TL;DR: Risk stratification using ventricular function in patients with and without congestive heart failure has had the greatest prognostic value in predicting overall survival but has had lesser impact with respect to sudden cardiac death survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonpharmacological therapy for malignant ventricular arrhythmias: Implantable defibrillator trials
