An Arrhythmia Describes an Irregular Heartbeat: Commentary

Raouf Khalil*

Arrhythmias occur when the electrical signals that coordinate heartbeats are not working correctly. It might happen in patients with heart that appear to be ordinarily organized. Ventricular tachycardia frequently happens when the heart muscle has been harmed and scar tissue makes unusual electrical pathways in the ventricles. Many system has been designed to help in the processing of cardiac signals: single or multiple lead Electrocardiograms (ECG), electrograms from intracardiac catheters, esophageal recordings. These developments were oriented toward positive identification of arrhythmias.
