Ventricular Tachycardia Precipitated by Short-long-short Sequence in a Patient with Implantable-cardioverter Defibrillator

Abrupt changes in heart rate, particularly short-long-short sequences in the ventricular cycle length (CL), might precede initiation of ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation (VT/VF). These changes may be facilitated or caused by pacing activity in patients with pacemakers or implantable-cardioverter...
