PROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS BETWEEN AMIODARONE Versus LIDOCAINE IN SVT

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2017
Introduction: Recent studies have suggested that other medications may be superior to amiodarone in controlling ventricular arrhythmias. However, a prospective and randomized comparison with lidocaine has not yet been described. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the use of amiodarone versus lidocaine in patients with stable ventricular tachycardias. Methodology: For this, a unicentric, randomized and prospective study will be carried out, in which the two drugs will be administered in a comparative manner. Hospital data (test results, medical outcomes, arrhythmia reversal, complications) of patients will be analyzed for safety and effectiveness. Expected results: The use of lidocaine is not inferior to amiodarone in the tolerability and reversion of stable ventricular tachycardias.
