This study was closed before its planned primary completion date because early data indicated that VT ablation had little impact on sympathetic nerve activity in short-term follow up.

This study is being done to determine whether there is an increase in sympathetic nerve activity before the onset of ventricular arrhythmias or irregular heartbeat rhythm. In addition, this study is looking at the relationship between sympathetic nerve activity and how patients with ventricular arrhythmias respond to catheter ablation treatment.
