Ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation

Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2009
Ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation are the most important causes of sudden cardiac death (SCD), particularly in those with structural heart disease and reduced left ventricular function. It is important to distinguish ventricular tachycardia from supraventricular tachycardia.

Ventricular-Arterial and Ventricular-Ventricular Interactions and Their Relevance to Diastolic Filling

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2007
Chronic heart failure is a common clinical problem, and, until recently, attention has focused predominantly on those patients with reduced left ventricular (LV) systolic function, as evidenced by a reduced LV ejection fraction. However, nearly half of all patients thought clinically to have heart failure have a "preserved" LV ejection fraction ...

Ventricular pacing in atypical ventricular tachycardia

Journal of Electrocardiology, 1981
Ventricular pacing was effective in controlling recurrent bouts of atypical ventricular tachycardia (Torsade de Pointes), in four patients. This arrhythmia was induced by quinidine or disopyramide therapy. Isoproterenol, which is the usually recommended therapy, was ineffective in two of the patients and was considered hazardous in two others.
