Ventricular arrhythmias: an introduction

Abnormal heart rhythms occur when the electrical impulse does not originate at the sinus node and follow the normal path through the atria and ventricles.

In this presentation, we look at the other main type of abnormal heart rhythms (or arrhythmias) which can occur: ventricular arrhythmias. In particular, we will explore the origin and ECG features of ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation.
