Overview
Ischemic heart disease is a common cause of ventricular tachycardia. Other causes of ventricular tachycardia are illicit drug use such as cocaine and methamphetamine, structural heart diseases including congenital heart diseases and inherited channelopathies. In addition, drugs that prolong the QT interval and electrolyte disturbances such as hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, and hypocalcemia can also predispose to ventricular tachycardia.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
Common Causes
- Acid-base disturbances
- Antiarrhythmics
- Azithromycin
- Cardioversion
- Clarithromycin
- Claritin
- Cocaine
- Congestive heart failure
- Dilated cardiomyopathy
- Erythromycin
- Hypokalemia
- Hypomagnesemia
- Myocarditis
- Obstructive sleep apnea
- Pulmonary artery catheter
- STEMI
- Tricyclic antidepressants
