Jul 30, 2023 · Ventricular tachycardia is a potentially life-threatening arrhythmia, and it is responsible for the majority of sudden cardiac deaths in the United States. [2] It is classified by duration as non-sustained or sustained ventricular tachycardia.
EKG Criteria for Ventricular Tachycardia
May 19, 2024 · Ventricular activation–velocity ratio (vi/vt) <1; vi/vt is the vertical excursion (in millivolts) recorded during the initial (vi) and terminal (vt) 40 ms of the QRS complex. If none of those criteria are met, it is supraventricular tachycardia.
