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

Ventricular tachycardia at will
An unusual case of ventricular tachycardia, produced at will, due to positional migration of the central venous catheter tip is reported. Implications of this in the genesis of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias are discussed.

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.

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.

Atabrine in Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]
The therapeutic efficacy of Atabrine in ventricular tachycardia has not yet been clearly demonstrated. In this case report, Atabrine stopped ventricular tachycardia and restored normal sinus rhythm following the fifth two-hourly oral dose of 0.30 Gm. Nausea and vomiting were the only toxic effects noted.

Gene Transfer of Engineered Calmodulin Alleviates Ventricular Arrhythmias in a Calsequestrin-Associated Mouse Model of Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a familial arrhythmogenic syndrome characterized by sudden death. There are several genetic forms of CPVT associated with mutations in genes encoding the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2 ...

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 ...
