Trial Outcomes & Findings for RIGHT: Rhythm ID Going Head-to-Head Trial (NCT NCT00148954)

NCT ID: NCT00148954

Last Updated: 2012-01-12

Results Overview

An inappropriate therapy is defined as a VT/VF therapy, either shock or antitachycardia pacing (ATP), delivered for a supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). All events for which a VT/VF therapy was delivered and a stored electrogram exists were reviewed by an independent adjudication committee to determine the appropriateness of device rhythm classification and subsequent therapy delivery.
