The Main Types Of Tachycardia

Ventricular Tachycardia

Ventricular tachycardia, ladies, starts in your ventricles! They're the bottom parts of your heart. This condition makes your heartbeat a fast one, but also abnormal! You're going to have a heart rate of at least 100 beats per minute, with this heartbeat happening 3 or more times in a row. Ladies, you'll likely only experience this for a few seconds. It can, however, last for longer. When this happens, it's a dangerous condition!

Ladies, you have an abnormal circuit in your heart muscle. This circuit triggers ventricular tachycardia in 2 ways. The first? the circuit is activated from the outside. The second is when the circuit activates itself. Either way, ladies, your heart won't fill with blood. Your organs won't get the blood they need as well.

Ventricular Fibrillation

This one's the most dangerous! Ladies, ventricular fibrillation means electricity's making your ventricles shudder. They're not beating right! It'll stop blood circulating, triggering your collapse, often followed by a heart attack. Ladies, this one can even happen after a heart attack! Either way, you need emergency treatment.

Ladies, you'll see this condition triggered by several things. Have you had a heart attack before? You have heart muscle damage because of it, and this can trigger ventricular fibrillation! Not having enough blood flowing to the muscle also lets this condition set in. Aorta problems are a significant cause as well! Two more causes of it are drug toxicity and severe infections. Make sure to minimize your risk and get treatment, ladies!
