  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.

  3. Accessory pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accessory_pathway

    Some pathways may activate a region of ventricular muscle earlier than would normally occur, referred to as pre-excitation, and this may be seen on an electrocardiogram. The combination of an accessory pathway that causes pre-excitation with arrhythmias is known as Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome. [2]

  4. Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catecholaminergic...

    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 ...

  5. Idioventricular rhythm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idioventricular_rhythm

    An idioventricular rhythm is a cardiac rhythm characterized by a rate of <50 beats per minute (bpm), absence of conducted P waves and widening of the QRS complex. [1] In cases where the heart rate is between 50 and 110 bpm, it is known as accelerated idioventricular rhythm and ventricular tachycardia if the rate exceeds 120 bpm.

  6. Bigeminy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bigeminy

    Bigeminy is contrasted with couplets, which are paired abnormal beats. Groups of three abnormal beats are called triplets and are considered a brief run of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT), and if the grouping lasts for more than 30 seconds, it is ventricular tachycardia (VT). [2]

  7. Pre-excitation syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-excitation_syndrome

    Pre-excitation may not cause any symptoms but may lead to palpitations caused by abnormal heart rhythms. It is usually diagnosed using an electrocardiogram, but may only be found during an electrophysiological study. [2] The condition may not require any treatment at all, but symptoms can be controlled using medication or catheter ablation.

  8. Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_junctional...

    The cause is an accessory pathway in the heart which conducts from the ventricles back to the atria. Unlike the accessory pathway in a more common cause of AVRT, Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome, the accessory pathway in PJRT conducts slowly. This means that the associated tachycardia may be subclinical and only diagnosed at a late stage ...

  9. Electrical alternans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_alternans

    Electrical alternans is an electrocardiographic phenomenon of alternation of QRS complex amplitude or axis between beats and a possible wandering base-line. It can be seen in cardiac tamponade and severe pericardial effusion and is thought to be related to changes in the ventricular electrical axis due to fluid in the pericardium, as the heart essentially wobbles in the fluid filled ...
