Background:Anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) delivered by implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) safely avoids painful shocks with minimum risk of tachycardia acceleration. The etiology of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in those studies, however, was predominantly coronary artery disease (CAD). Patient etiology differs by geography and could affect ATP efficacy rate. The primary objective of this study was to examine how often the first ATP therapy terminates fast VT (FVT) in Japanese ICD patients with regional etiologies.Methods and Results:Seven hundred and fifteen patients received ICD or cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator with the function of ATP during capacitor charging. The primary endpoint was the first ATP success rate for terminating FVT with cycle length 240–320 ms. During a mean follow-up of 11.3 months, 888 spontaneous VT episodes were detected, including 276 FVT (31.1%) in 42 patients. The first-ATP success rate for FVT in the overall group (41% CAD, 59% non-CAD including 23% idiopathic VT) was 62.1% (61.7% adjusted). Success rate was not different between non-CAD and CAD patients (61.4% adjusted and 57.5% adjusted, respectively, P=0.75). Eight FVT episodes (2.9%) accelerated after the first ATP attempt, all of which were terminated by subsequent device therapy (additional ATP or shock).Conclusions:ATP efficacy for FVT was similar between ICD patients with and without CAD etiology.
