Overview
There are no recommended therapeutic interventions for the management of [disease name].
OR
[name of intervention] is not the first-line treatment option for patients with [disease name]. [name of intervention] is usually reserved for patients with either [indication 1], [indication 2], and/or [indication 3].
OR
The mainstay of treatment for [disease name] is medical therapy/surgery. [Name of intervention] is usually reserved for patients with either [indication 1], [indication 2], and/or [indication 3].
OR
The feasibility of [name of intervention] depends on the stage of [disease or malignancy] at the time of diagnosis.
OR
[Name of intervention] is the mainstay of treatment for [disease or malignancy].
Indications
The mainstay of treatment for TT is medical therapy.
Overview
Radiofrequency ablation is useful for treating patients with high frequency of premature ventricular contraction episodes.
Ablation
Recent studies have shown that those subjects who have an extremely high occurrence of PVCs (several thousand a day) can develop dilated cardiomyopathy. In these cases, if the PVCs are reduced or removed by ablation therapy, the cardiomyopathy usually regresses.[1][2]

Recommendations for Autonomic Modulation
Class IIb |
1. In patients with VT/VF storm in whom a beta blocker, other antiarrhythmic medications, and catheter ablation are ineffective, not tolerated, or not possible, cardiac sympathetic denervation may be reasonable (Level of Evidence: C-LD).[4][5][6] |
