Evidence for the usefulness of the defibrillator in cases of preserved left ventricular ejection fraction and well-tolerated ventricular tachycardia (without cardiocirculatory arrest or syncope) is lacking, as no previous trials have included such patients. Additionally, sudden death in this particular population is low compared to other subgroups of patients with malignant ventricular arrhythmias. On the other hand, numerous recent retrospective data show that ablation of ventricular tachycardia can reduce mortality, and also clearly reduces the number of recurrences in prospective studies. Finally, a very low rate of sudden death was observed in a multicenter European retrospective study that we conducted, including patients with well-tolerated ventricular tachycardia in structural heart disease with minimally impaired ejection fraction and benefiting from ablation without implantation of defibrillator.

Monitoring for the occurrence of at least one serious event during the 36 months of follow-up
Monitoring of the occurrence of death from any cause, hospitalization or emergency consultation for any event related to ventricular arrhythmia or its treatment (recurrence of ventricular tachycardia or complication linked to the defibrillator or crossover from one group to another)
36 months
Implantation of an automatic defibrillator
Percutaneous catheter ablation
Collection of deaths from any cause, hospitalizations or emergency consultations for any event related to ventricular arrhythmia or its treatment (recurrence of ventricular tachycardia or complication linked to the defibrillator or crossover from one group to another)

TcMS to Treat Ventricular Tachycardia
Questionnaire on the patient's quality of life and health in 6 questions: on mobility, the person's autonomy, current activities, pain, anxiety. Answers range from "no problem" to "unable" and 5 possible answers to each question. The last question concerns the patient's health, the patient must rate his or her health on a scale of 0 to 100
Collection of expenses incurred by the care of patients in each arm will be collected over a period of 36 months. Direct medical and non-medical costs as well as costs related to absences from the workplace will be included in the analysis. Healthcare consumption will be collected using the National Health Data System (SNDS).
