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
