2. Ventricular tachycardia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_tachycardia

   Ventricular tachycardia (V-tach or VT) is a cardiovascular disorder in which fast heart rate occurs in the ventricles of the heart. [3] Although a few seconds of VT may not result in permanent problems, longer periods are dangerous; and multiple episodes over a short period of time are referred to as an electrical storm.

   Tachycardia. A faster-than-normal heart rate. Bradycardia. A slower-than-normal heartbeat. Atrial fibrillation (A-fib). An irregular and often very fast heart rate. Premature ventricular ...

4. Arrhythmia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhythmia

   Supraventricular tachycardias include atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. [3] Ventricular arrhythmias include ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. [3] [7] Bradyarrhythmias are due to sinus node dysfunction or atrioventricular conduction disturbances. [8]

5. Fibrillation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrillation

   There are two major classes of cardiac fibrillation: atrial fibrillation and ventricular fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation is an irregular and uncoordinated contraction of the cardiac muscle of atria. It can be a chronic condition, usually treated with anticoagulation and sometimes with conversion to normal sinus rhythm.

6. Supraventricular tachycardia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraventricular_tachycardia

   Atrial fibrillation: Red dots show atrial fibrillation activity. Atrial fibrillation meets the definition of SVT when associated with a ventricular response greater than 100 beats per minute. It is characterized as an "irregularly, irregular rhythm" both in its atrial and ventricular depolarizations and is distinguished by its fibrillatory ...

   [1] [5] People with TIC may have symptoms associated with heart failure (e.g. shortness of breath or ankle swelling) and/or symptoms related to the tachycardia or arrhythmia (e.g. palpitations). [1] [2] Though atrial fibrillation is the most common cause of TIC, several tachycardias and arrhythmias have been associated with the disease. [5] [1]
