Chemical ablation of the left ventricular endocardium reduces ventricular fibrillation inducibility in acute ischemic canine heart.

Chemical ablation of the LV endocardium with Lugol's solution injures endocardial conduction system and increases ventricular fibrillation threshold in the early phase of myocardial ischemia in canines. The procedure may be useful in suppressing intractable ventricular tachyarrhythmias in patients with acute myocardial ischemia.
