Schema of an ATP therapy.
Fig 2.
Schema of a burst ATP therapy. Shown are three sequences, with P = 7 pulses.
The interval time between pulses is given by the detected cycle length times the coupling interval (%R-S1) minus an interval decrement for each repetition.

Fig 4.
The fraction of terminated episodes for the different parameter settings for fast and slow VT.
The settings differ in the coupling interval (%R-S1), a maximum number of sequences (S), and the number of pulses (P). The numbers above the bars are from top to bottom: number of patients (n), number of episodes (l), percentage of episodes where the first ATP treatment terminated VT, and the probability of acceleration. Results significantly better than %R-S1 = 88, S = 3, and P = 8 (P<0.01) are marked by ↑, significantly worse results are marked by ↓, and no arrow indicates non-significant differences compared to %R-S1 = 88, S = 3, and P = 8.
