Article Synopsis
- Electrical storm (ES) is a serious condition characterized by repeated episodes of dangerous heart rhythms (ventricular arrhythmias) occurring within 24 hours, requiring medical intervention.
- It mainly affects patients with existing heart issues or those with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), and it poses significant health risks despite advanced treatments.
- The increasing number of older patients with heart conditions and ICDs suggests that the incidence of ES is likely to rise, prompting the need for comprehensive management strategies and a multi-disciplinary approach.
