Overview
Ventricular tachycardia must be distinguished from a variety of electrocardiographic abnormalities with similar appearance.
Differential Diagnosis
- Accelerated idioventricular rhythm
- Atrial Fibrillation
- Atrial Flutter
- Atrial Tachycardia
- Congestive Heart Failure and Pulmonary Edema
- Dual-chamber pacemaker tracking an atrial tachycardia
- ECG artifact
- Hypocalcemia
- Hypokalemia
- Hypomagnesemia
- Inappropriate rate responsive pacing
- Long QT Syndrome
- Multifocal atrial tachycardia
- Myocardial Infarction
- Pacemaker failure
- Pacemaker syndrome
- Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia
- Premature ventricular contraction
- Pulseless electrical activity or PEA
- Sudden cardiac death
- Supraventricular tachycardia, atrial tachycardia (SVT, AT) with aberrant conduction
- Ventricular Fibrillation
- Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome
