A randomized comparison of amiodarone and class IC antiarrhythmic drugs to treat atrial fibrillation in patients paced for sinus node disease: The Prevention Investigation and Treatment: A Group for Observation and Research on Atrial arrhythmias (PITAGORA

In patients paced for SND and suffering from AT, class IC AADs proved not to be inferior to amiodarone in terms of the primary composite end point described or end points which were differently composed of mortality, efficacy, or AAD side effects. The AADs studied also showed similar results in terms of symptoms, quality of life, and freedom from AT recurrences.
