Abstract
In the absence of acute ischaemia, ventricular tachycardia (VT) is the most common arrhythmia leading to cardiac arrest and death. This paper will describe the history of research into VT and the therapies that evolved. The contributions of John Uther and other members of the Department of Cardiology at Westmead Hospital will be outlined and placed into perspective.
