简要总结
Steoreotactic therapy radioablation has become a standard of care option for patients with therapy-refractory ventricular tachycardia, yet long-term outcome is lacking. The objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term outcomes, both efficacy and safety, after STAR in patients with therapy-refractory ventricular tachycardia.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in VT burden
时间窗: 48 months
Change in VT burden, measured as the frequency of appropriate ICD interventions or documented VT episodes over a 48-month follow-up period. The ICD interrogations are part of standard of care and the majority of patients are included in remote monitoring which automatically sends new VT episodes to the telemonitoring team. The efficacy of STAR will be assessed by analysing both the total VT burden, but also time to first VT event (with and without a 6 week blanking period).
