Monomorphic ventricular tachycardia means that the appearance of all the beats match each other in each lead of a surface electrocardiogram (ECG). Scar-related monomorphic ventricular tachycardia is the most common type and a frequent cause of death in patients having survived a heart attack, especially if they have weak heart muscle. [12]
Monomorphic refers to all QRS waves in a single lead being similar in shape. Polymorphic means that the QRS change from complex to complex. [19] These terms are used in the description of ventricular tachycardia.
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is an inherited genetic disorder that predisposes those affected to potentially life-threatening abnormal heart rhythms or arrhythmias. The arrhythmias seen in CPVT typically occur during exercise or at times of emotional stress, and classically take the form of bidirectional ...
Focal V-tach is where a specific area of the ventricle has abnormal automaticity. The automaticity rate is the frequency at which a cell sends out a signal, so for the pacemaker cells in the SA node the rate is between about 60 and 100 signals per minute, resulting in 60 to 100 beats per minute, let’s just say 60 beats per minute, so one beat ...
Groups of three premature ventricular beats are called triplets and are considered a brief run of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT); if the grouping lasts for more than 30 seconds, it is considered sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT). [14] Accelerated idioventricular rhythm; Monomorphic ventricular tachycardia
Nearly seven years in the making, the expanded College Football Playoff will make its debut this season with Indiana at Notre Dame on Friday.. The 2024 college football season was rife with drama ...
Devaughn Vele gets a good grade for concentration. The Denver Broncos receiver couldn't have figured that he would catch a touchdown when Bo Nix threw it toward the back of the end zone.
