Read moreIs ventricular arrhythmia considered heart disease?
Most people who have ventricular fibrillation have an underlying heart disease or have experienced serious trauma. Ventricular tachycardia. This rapid, regular heart rate starts with faulty electrical signals in the lower heart chambers (ventricles).
Read moreWhat causes ventricular arrhythmia?
Ventricular arrhythmias occur when the normal pattern of electrical signals is disrupted , causing the heart to beat too fast. These too-rapid heart rates can prevent the heart from effectively pumping blood to the body.
