Ventricular tachycardia (V-tach or VT) is when the lower chamber of the heart beats too fast to pump efficiently. This reduces the amount of oxygenated blood the rest of the body receives.

Ventricular tachycardia refers to a wide QRS complex heart rhythm — that is, a QRS duration beyond 120 milliseconds — originating in the ventricles at a rate of greater than 100 beats per minute.

Such techniques can be automatically applied using implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and offer the potential for painless termination of ventricular tachycardia (VT). Reduction in ...

Gottfried, who famously voiced Iago in Disney's 1992 classic Aladdin, had been dealing with recurrent ventricular tachycardia due to myotonic dystrophy type II, his longtime friend and publicist ...

Ablation sites (maroon circular tags) abolished ventricular tachycardia in this patient.

Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia is quite rare, but pathognomonic for digoxin toxicity. This ECG has two distinct QRS morphologies alternating every other beat. The QRS complex duration is ...

The UAB Departments of Radiation Oncology and Cardiology are looking for patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT) not controlled by medications and catheter ablation. The trial will allow patients ...
