Overview

Ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation[1] are the causes of most sudden cardiac deaths and account for about 300,000 deaths per year in the united states alone. This figure is most likely underestimated as it doesn't account for deaths due to unwitnessed dysrhythmias.[2]

Epidemiology and Demographics

For more see Epidemiology and Demographics of ventricular tachycardia.
