A Direct Comparison of a Novel Antitachycardia Pacing Algorithm Against Present Methods Using Virtual Patient Modeling

Antitachycardia pacing (ATP) success rates have been reported as low as 50% for fast VTs, providing an opportunity for improved ATP to decrease shocks. A new self-adapting ATP algorithm, AATP, was compared to traditional Burst ATP using computer modeling to conduct a virtual study.
