Randomized Assessment of TcMS for VT Storm (NCT05599022)
Randomized Assessment of the Efficacy of Transcutaneous Magnetic Stimulation in Patients With Ventricular Tachycardia Storm
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Three-arm randomized clinical trial comparing two strategies of TcMS to sham stimulation in patients with VT storm. The hypothesis of the study is that TcMS will reduce the burden of VT in the 24 hours after randomization compared to sham stimulation and that TcMS with theta burst stimulation (TBS) will be more effective at reducing VT burden than low frequency TcMS.
