==[[Secondary prevention]]==
[[Secondary prevention]] strategies following [[SCA]] and unstable [[VT]] include [[ICD]] implantation, and [[medications]].
* Based on meta-analysis of [[AVID trial]] implantation of [[ICD]] for [[secondary prevention]] of [[ventricular arrhythmia]] was superior to [[antiarrhythmic]] drugs in [[patients]] who survived of [[sudden cardiac arrest]] or unstable [[VT]].<ref>{{cite journal|title=A Comparison of Antiarrhythmic-Drug Therapy with Implantable Defibrillators in Patients Resuscitated from Near-Fatal Ventricular Arrhythmias|journal=New England Journal of Medicine|volume=337|issue=22|year=1997|pages=1576–1584|issn=0028-4793|doi=10.1056/NEJM199711273372202}}</ref>

==Post [[CABG]],[[VT]]/[[VF]]==
* [[Ventricular tachycardia]] rarely occur within 24 hours after [[CABG]] due to  the transient effects of [[reperfusion]], [[electrolyte]] and [[acid-base]] disturbances, and the use of [[inotrope]].
* [[VF]] or [[poly morphic VT]] in the postoperative period may be the manifestation of [[myocardial ischemia]] and  [[mechanical complications]] and acute [[electrolyte]] or [[acid base]] disturbances and graft patency should be warranted.<ref name="SaxonWiener1995">{{cite journal|last1=Saxon|first1=Leslie A.|last2=Wiener|first2=Isaac|last3=Natterson|first3=Paul D.|last4=Laks|first4=Hillel|last5=Drinkwater|first5=Davis|last6=Stevenson|first6=William G.X.|title=Monomorphic versus polymorphic ventricular tachycardia after coronary artery bypass grafting|journal=The American Journal of Cardiology|volume=75|issue=5|year=1995|pages=403–405|issn=00029149|doi=10.1016/S0002-9149(99)80566-9}}</ref>
* [[Monomorphic VT]] may be  related to , prior [[MI]], [[ventricular]] scar, LV dysfunction, and placement of a [[bypass graft]] across a [[noncollateralized]] occluded [[coronary vessel]] to a chronic [[infarct]] zone.
