2. Cardiogenic shock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiogenic_shock

   Cardiogenic shock is a medical emergency resulting from inadequate blood flow to the body's organs due to the dysfunction of the heart.Signs of inadequate blood flow include low urine production (<30 mL/hour), cool arms and legs, and decreased level of consciousness.

3. Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paroxysmal_supra...

   Treatment depends on the type of heart rhythm shown on an electrocardiogram test, and the stability of the patient's blood circulation. If a patient has low blood pressure, difficulty breathing, chest pain, shock, or confusion, they are considered unstable and must have an electrocardiogram result checked to determine if the heart is beating ...

   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.

   Multifocal (or multiform) atrial tachycardia (MAT) is an abnormal heart rhythm, [2] specifically a type of supraventricular tachycardia, that is particularly common in older people and is associated with exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Normally, the heart rate is controlled by a cluster of cells called the ...

8. Cardiac stress test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_stress_test

   The ultrasound images obtained are similar to the ones obtained during a full surface echocardiogram, commonly referred to as transthoracic echocardiogram. The patient is subjected to stress in the form of exercise or chemically (often dobutamine). After the target heart rate is achieved, 'stress' echocardiogram images are obtained.

9. Atrial tachycardia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrial_tachycardia

   Atrial tachycardia is a type of heart rhythm problem in which the heart's electrical impulse comes from an ectopic pacemaker (that is, an abnormally located cardiac pacemaker) in the upper chambers of the heart, rather than from the sinoatrial node, the normal origin of the heart's electrical activity.
