Overview
Epidemiology
- The prevalence of ventricular arrhythmia is approximately 69000 per 100,000 men and 68000 per 100,0000 women with coronary artery disease worldwide.[1]
- The prevalence of ventricular tachycardia is approximately 54,000 per 100,000 in men and 55,000 per 100,000 in women with hypertension, valvular heart disease, or cardiomyopathy without coronary artery disease and 31000 per 100,000 in men and 30,000 per 100,000 in women with no cardiovascular disease.
- Between 2005-2013, the incidence of vetricular arrhythmia associated cardiomyopathy was estimated to be 28,800 cases per 100,000 individuals in Minnesota.[2]
Age
- Ideopathic Ventricular tachycardia is more commonly observed among elderly patients.
Gender
- Females are more commonly affected with ideopathic VT than men.[2]
Race
- There is no racial predilection for ventricular arrhythmia.
