Patients on ACEi\/ARB were compared to patients without ACEi\/ARB, respectively, for statin and amiodarone therapy. The primary prognostic endpoint was all-cause mortality at 4 years. Secondary endpoints comprised ES recurrences, rehospitalization, and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 4 years. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and multivariable Cox regression analyses were applied. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; A total of 84 consecutive patients surviving episodes of ES was included. Beta-blocker was given in 95%, ACEi\/ARB in 80%, statin in 60%, and amiodarone in 54%. ACEi\/ARB patients were associated with improved all-cause mortality at 4 years (mortality rate 34 vs. 65%, log rank &lt;i&gt;p&lt;\/i&gt; = 0.018; HR 0.428; 95% CI 0.208\u20130.881; &lt;i&gt;p&lt;\/i&gt; = 0.021), as well as improved freedom from MACE. In contrast, statin and amiodarone therapy had no impact on long-term outcomes in ES patients. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; ACEi\/ARB therapy is associated with improved survival and MACE in patients with ES, whereas statins and amiodarone therapy had no impact on long-term prognostic endpoints.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000496228","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,29]],"date-time":"2019-01-29T22:07:49Z","timestamp":1548799669000},"page":"179-188","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Impact of Different Pharmacotherapies on Long-Term Outcomes in Patients with Electrical Storm"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"103","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8171-7617","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tobias","family":"Schupp","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5970-0093","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michael","family":"Behnes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dominik","family":"Ellguth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julian","family":"M\u00fcller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Linda","family":"Reiser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Armin","family":"Bollow","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gabriel","family":"Taton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Reichelt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Niko","family":"Engelke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Seung-hyun","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christoph","family":"Nienaber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Muharrem","family":"Akin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kambis","family":"Mashayekhi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Bertsch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Martin","family":"Borggrefe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ibrahim","family":"Akin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,29]]},"container-title":["Pharmacology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/496228","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/496228","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T17:23:24Z","timestamp":1745429004000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000496228"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3-4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,22]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000496228","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0031-7012","1423-0313"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0031-7012"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1423-0313"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019]]}}}
