Pulsed ventricular tachycardia: a case study.
British Journal of Nursing : BJN 2023 May 26
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an arrhythmia that originates from the ventricles of the heart and presents as a wide and prolonged QRS complex on the electrocardiograph of greater than 120 milliseconds, with a heart rate of over 100 beats per minute. VT can occur as a pulsed or pulseless rhythm. Pulseless VT occurs when the ventricles cannot effectively pump blood out of the heart, therefore resulting in no cardiac output. Pulsed VT can manifest with the patient presenting asymptomatically, or with symptoms of reduced cardiac output resulting from poor ventricular filling. There is the potential for the patient to quickly become haemodynamically unstable if not treated. This article discusses a case of pulsed VT, diagnosed and treated out of hours in an acute hospital.
