| ventricular tachycardia | <cardiology> Abnormal accelerated ventricular rhythm with a usual rate of 150-200 beats per minute. Because ventricular tachycardia originates in the ventricle, it appears as a wide complex rhythm on ECG. A potentially unstable rhythm that may result in fainting, low blood pressure, shock or sudden death. Ventricular tachycardia has the potential of degrading to the more serious ventricular fibrillation. Ventricular tachycardia is a common and often, lethal complication of acute myocardial infarction (heart attack). Origin: Gr. Kardia = heart (12 Jan 1998) |
| ventricular triggered pulse generator | A pulse which delivers its output synchronously with naturally occurring ventricular activity but which, in the absence of such activity, functions as an asynchronous pulse generator. Synonym: ventricular triggered pulse generator. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricular trigone | A triangular prominence of the floor of the lateral ventricle at the transition between occipital and temporal horn, continuous rostrally with the collateral eminence and, like the latter, caused by the deep penetration of the collateral sulcus from the ventral surface of the temporal lobe. Synonym: trigonum collaterale, trigone of lateral ventricle, trigonum ventriculi, ventricular trigone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricularis | Synonym: ventricular. Synonym: thyroepiglottic muscle. Origin: Mod. L. Fr. L. Ventriculus (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricularization | Transformation of an atrial phenomenon to simulate a ventricular one, especially of the atrial (or venous) pulse tracing in tricuspid regurgitation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricular fibrillation |
a condition in which the ventricles contract in rapid and unsynchronized rhythms and cannot pump blood into the body.

| ventricular fibrillation |
A condition in which the purposeful, forceful, and rhythmic contraction of the ventricle is lost. Ventricular fibrillation is one of several conditions known as "arrhythmias". With ventricular fibrillation, the heart muscle has no purposeful contractile motion, which results in a loss of the pumping action of the heart. Ventricular fibrillation is fatal if not quickly treated. Ventricular fibrillation can be treated with medications, or through an electrical shock known as a defibrillation.

| ventricular tachycardia |
Abnormal heart beat in the lower chambers of the heart, usually to a rate of 150-200 beats per minute; may result in fainting, low blood pressure, shock, or even sudden death; common and often lethal complication of heart attack.

| ventricular septum |
The wall between the left and right ventricle. If the wall is not fully formed, a ventricular septal defect is present.
