Question

Q10: Which of the rhythms is most likely to convert to cardiac arrest? ​

Answer 1

The most common shockable rhythms associated with cardiac arrest are:

(a) Pulseless ventricular tachycardia (b)Ventricular fibrillation

(a) Pulseless ventricular tachycardia

• A condition in which the lower chambers of the heart (ventricles) beat extremely fast.
• Electrical impulse problems in the heart lead to ventricular tachycardia. If you have certain medical conditions, such as valvular heart disease, you may develop it as a side effect of a heart attack.
• A type of abnormal heart rhythm called ventricular fibrillation (arrhythmia). The lower chambers of the heart contract rapidly and erratically during ventricular fibrillation. The heart then stops pumping blood to the other organs of the body.

(b)Ventricular fibrillation

• Ventricular fibrillation is a medical emergency that must be treated immediately.
• Ventricular fibrillation is a type of irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). During ventricular fibrillation, the lower chambers of the heart contract very quickly and uncoordinated. As a result, the heart does not pump blood to the rest of the body.
• Ventricular fibrillation is an emergency that requires immediate medical attention. This is the most common cause of sudden cardiac death.
