 ==Overview==
-Reversible/preventible risk factors for ventricular tachycardia include [[electrolyte disturbances]] such as [[hypokalemia]], [[digitalis toxicity]], [[antiarrhythmic]] use, [[pulmonary artery catheter]] placement and illicit drug use such as [[cocaine]].  Irreversible causes include [[structural heart disease]] and inherited [[channelopathies]].
+[[Smoking]], [[alcohol]], and [[coffee]] are considered potential precipitants of premature atrial contraction.
