This scenario was developed to educate emergency medicine residents on the diagnosis and management of ventricular tachycardia (VT) that is refractory to single dose anti-arrhythmic management.Electrical storm, defined as three or more episodes of sustained VT, ventricular fibrillation, or appropriate shocks from an implantable cardioverter ...

Idiopathic Ventricular Tachycardia
Idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an important cause of morbidity and less commonly, mortality in patients with structurally normal hearts. Appropriate diagnosis and management are predicated on an understanding of the mechanism, relevant cardiac anatomy, and associated ECG signatures. Catheter ablation is a viable strategy to adequately treat

Pyrogen reaction and conversion of sustained ventricular tachycardia to sinus rhythm: two case reports [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Pyrogen reaction is a side effect of intravenous infusion of solution on body; sustained ventricular tachycardia is a serious arrhythmia, no relationship between them has been reported before.

Is narrow qrs complex tachyarrythmia always from supraventricular?
Idiopathic left ventricular tachycardia (previously known as fascicular VT) is characterized by right bundle branch block (RBBB) left axis ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a relatively narrow QRS (120–140 ms) in young patients and sensitive to verapamil.

Resetting of ventricular tachycardia: Implications for localizing the area of slow conduction [PDF]
Analysis of local endocardial electrograms recorded during reentrant ventricular tachycardia does not provide direct information as to the participation of the recording site in the tachycardia circuit.

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance for Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation and Risk Stratification
Ventricular tachycardia is the most frequent cause of sudden cardiovascular death in patients with structural heart disease. Radiofrequency ablation is the treatment cornerstone in this population.

Clinical and molecular characterization of a cardiac ryanodine receptor founder mutation causing catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia [PDF]
Background Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a difficult-to-diagnose cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD). We identified a family of 1400 individuals with multiple cases of CPVT, including 36 SCDs during youth.

Bidirectional Ventricular Tachycardia
![Figure][1] Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia is a hallmark of severe digitalis toxicity. The 12-lead electrocardiogram obtained from a 54-year-old man with acute heart failure and digitoxin intoxication shows typical features of this potentially life-threatening arrhythmia: a ...
