Overview
There are no specific echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with pulseless ventricular tachycardia. However, echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the evaluation of underlying etiologies in patients as well as complications due to the arrhythmia.
Echocardiography/Ultrasound
There are no specific echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with pulseless ventricular tachycardia. However, echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the evaluation of underlying etiologies in patients as well as complications due to the arrhythmia. Findings on echocardiography that may suggest an underlying etiology include;[1]
- Problem with left ventricular systolic function
- Presence or absence of associated left ventricular wall motion abnormalities
- Myocardial infiltrative process.
