Over the past few decades, understanding of ventricular outflow tract tachycardia has fundamentally transformed. Although previously considered to be arrhythmia confined to just the right ventricular ...

Recurrent ventricular tachycardia among survivors of myocardial infarction with an implantable cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) is frequent despite antiarrhythmic drug therapy. The most effective ...

The ECG shows sinus tachycardia at about 115 beats per minute with a PR interval of about 0.15 sec (normal). The P waves show normal duration, but they are peaked in II, II and AVF and their amplitude ...

This Journal feature begins with a case vignette highlighting a common clinical problem. Evidence supporting various strategies is then presented, followed by a review of formal guidelines, when they ...

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) after palliative repair of congenital heart disease is relatively rare. Despite this rarity, VT is a known cause of early, intermediate and late morbidity and mortality in ...

Tachycardia is a type of arrhythmia when your heart rate is faster than normal. A healthy resting heart rate for most adults is between 60 and 90 beats per minute (bpm), but adults with tachycardia ...
