Background—Reducing sympathetic output to the heart from the neuraxis can protect
against ventricular arrhythmias. The purpose of this study was to assess the value of thoracic …

Background: Cardiac sympathetic denervation (CSD) has been shown to reduce the burden
of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocks in small series of patients with …

One such alternate strategy, already blessed by excellent results, is left cardiac sympathetic
denervation (LCSD). LCSD, as reviewed below, has been shown to modify favorably the …

Background Left and bilateral cardiac sympathetic denervation (CSD) have been shown to
reduce burden of ventricular arrhythmias acutely in a small number of patients with …

Background We reported the outcomes of a single-institution experience using video-
assisted thoracoscopic left cardiac sympathetic denervation as an adjunctive therapeutic …

Background Autonomic modulation is finding an increasing role in the treatment of
ventricular arrhythmias. Renal denervation (RDN) has been described as a treatment …

Cardiac sympathetic denervation (CSD) is reported to reduce the burden of ventricular
tachyarrhythmias [ventricular tachycardia (VT)/ventricular fibrillation (VF)] in cardiomyopathy …

A train of gated stimuli scanning the entire vulnerable period was delivered to the right
anterior or left posterior ventricular surface to study the ventricular fibrillation threshold in …

The autonomic nervous system is known to play a significant role in the genesis and
maintenance of arrhythmias. Neuromodulation, mostly designed to increase the …

Objective. The aim of this study was to determine whether patients with ventricular
arrhythmias in the absence of coronary artery disease also have abnormalities in …
