Myocardial Minimal Damage After Rapid Ventricular Pacing

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Antitachycardia Pacing
Registration Number
NCT02362802
Lead Sponsor
Deutsches Herzzentrum Muenchen
Brief Summary

This study aims to investigate the impact of antitachycardia pacing ( ATP) on the myocardial tissue with respect to its potential micro damage measured by several myocardial markers, especially by high-sensitive TroponinT.
