Abstract
While implantable cardioverter defibrillators decrease mortality in high risk groups of patients who have ventricular arrhythmias, antiarrhythmic drugs are still required to reduce the burden of both benign and life-threatening arrhythmias. This review will address the available medical therapy for ventricular arrhythmias in Australia and their use in different clinical situations.Entities:
