VT (Ventricular Tachycardia)

Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) is a fast heart rhythm that begins in the heart's lower chambers, known as the ventricles. During VT, the heart beats more quickly than normal, which can reduce its ability to pump blood effectively. This condition can cause symptoms like dizziness, shortness of breath, or chest pain and may lead to more serious problems if not treated. VT can occur in people with heart disease or other conditions, and it often requires medical attention to restore a normal heartbeat and prevent complications, such as fainting or cardiac arrest.
