Diseases of the heart and blood vessels (cardiology)

Ventricular fibrillation: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Ventricular fibrillation is uncoordinated excitation in the ventricles, which does not lead to a useful reduction. Ventricular fibrillation leads to immediate loss of consciousness and death within a few minutes. Treatment is performed by performing cardiopulmonary support, including immediate defibrillation.

Ventricular tachycardia as pirouette: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Ventricular tachycardia of the "pirouette" type is a special form of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia in patients with an elongated interval. It is characterized by frequent, irregular complexes of QRS, which seem to "dance" around the contour on the electrocardiogram.

Ventricular tachycardia

Ventricular tachycardia consists of three or more consecutive ventricular pulses with a frequency of 120 per minute. The symptoms of ventricular tachycardia depend on the duration and vary from a complete lack of sensation and palpitations to hemodynamic collapse and death.

Ventricular extrasystole

Ventricular extrasystole (VES) - single ventricular impulses resulting from re-entry involving ventricles or abnormal automatism of ventricular cells. Ventricular extrasystole is often found in healthy people and in patients with cardiac disease.

Blockade of legs and branches of the bundle of the Hyis: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

The blockade of the branch of the bundle of the bundle is a partial or complete violation of the impulse along the leg branch; blockade of the foot - a similar termination of the bundle of the bundle along the whole leg. Both violations are often combined.

Atrial fibrillation (atrial fibrillation): causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Atrial fibrillation (atrial fibrillation) is a frequent, irregular atrial rhythm. Symptoms include palpitations, sometimes weakness, dyspnea and presyncopal conditions. Clots are often formed in the atria, which creates a high risk of ischemic stroke.

Atrioventricular blockade: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Atrioventricular blockade is the partial or complete cessation of the impulse from the atria to the ventricles. The most common cause is idiopathic fibrosis and sclerosis of the conduction system.

Ectopic supraventricular rhythm

It is about various rhythms emanating from supraventricular sources (usually atria). Many conditions are asymptomatic and do not require treatment.

Syndrome of weakness of the sinus node

Dysfunction of the sinus node leads to the development of conditions in which the frequency of the atrial impulses does not correspond to physiological needs. Symptoms may be minimal or include weakness, palpitation, and syncope. The diagnosis is based on ECG data. Patients with clinical symptoms require the implantation of an artificial pacemaker.

Violation of the rhythm and conductivity of the heart: drugs

Treatment is not always required; The approach depends on the manifestations and danger of arrhythmia. Asymptomatic arrhythmias, not accompanied by high risk, do not require treatment, even if they occur with deterioration of survey data.
