Defibrillation is a technique used in emergency medicine to terminate ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia.

However, if not enough energy is used for defibrillation, the heart may not be completely depolarized, in which case the ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation may not be terminated.

Study participation was restricted to patients with either ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia who did not achieve a stable heart rhythm after at least one defibrillator shock and, therefore, represent the typical group of those who receive such medications for cardiac arrest in clinical practice.

The research, published in the journal Nature, found that transplanting genetically engineered muscle cells into the hearts of mice who had been induced to have heart attacks reduced the risk of a condition called ventricular tachycardia.

In severe cases, this can lead to atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia, and premature ventricular contractions.

These incessant ventricular tachycardias are common in the English Bulldog with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, a familial disease that also affects the Boxer and cats.

Cardiac dilation, decreased oxygen supply, and increased oxygen demand secondary to elevated heart rate and ventricular wall stress may predispose to the development of cardiac arrhythmias arising in either the atria (atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia) or in the ventricles (ventricular premature complexes, ventricular tachycardia).

In some diseases, such as dilated cardiomyopathy in Doberman Pinschers or ARVC in boxers, cardiac muscle cells are replaced by fibrous (scar) tissue, fat, or fibro - fatty tissue, which creates an ideal environment to disrupt the normal electrical stimulation of the heart and cause arrhythmias particularly ventricular tachycardiIn some diseases, such as dilated cardiomyopathy in Doberman Pinschers or ARVC in boxers, cardiac muscle cells are replaced by fibrous (scar) tissue, fat, or fibro - fatty tissue, which creates an ideal environment to disrupt the normal electrical stimulation of the heart and cause arrhythmias particularly ventricular tachycardiin Doberman Pinschers or ARVC in boxers, cardiac muscle cells are replaced by fibrous (scar) tissue, fat, or fibro - fatty tissue, which creates an ideal environment to disrupt the normal electrical stimulation of the heart and cause arrhythmias particularly ventricular tachycardiin boxers, cardiac muscle cells are replaced by fibrous (scar) tissue, fat, or fibro - fatty tissue, which creates an ideal environment to disrupt the normal electrical stimulation of the heart and cause arrhythmias particularly ventricular tachycardia.

When ventricular tachycardia occurs it may lead to a decrease in blood flow to the body.
