ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for treating ventricular tachycardia in which paces are delivered to the ventricles at multiple pacing sites in accordance with an anti-tachycardia pacing protocol. Paces are delivered at a selected offset interval in a manner that both resynchronizes ventricular contractions and increases the probability of terminating the tachycardia.
