Overview
Wide complex tachycardia will be due to VT in 80% of cases if there is a history of myocardial infarction (MI). Only 7% of patients with SVT with aberrancy will have had a prior myocardial infarction (MI). Wide complex tachycardia will be due to VT in 98% of cases if there's a history of structural heart disease.
