Ventricular tachycardias (VT) represents worldwide one of the leading causes of sudden cardiac death. The increasing number of implanted ICDs have reduced signifi cantly the number of sudden cardiac deaths SCDs); however recurrent VTs episodes might lead to a rapid deterioration of patient’s clinical status and systolic function. An early intervention after a successful patient stabilization in a dedicated VT unit is mandatory for the mid- and long term prognosis of the patient. Nevertheless, a tight collaboration between general hospitals and highly specialized centers in treatment of patients with electrical storm is essential for an effi cient and successful outcome.
