Ventricular Tachycardia that has a rate below 150 is identified as:
A)slow Ventricular Tachycardia.
B)Ventricular Asystole.
C)Ventricular Fibrillation.
D)Ventricular Bradycardia.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ventricular Tachycardia is typically defined as a heart rate of 100 bpm or greater. However, if the rate is below 150 bpm, it is considered to be "slow" compared to the typical range of ventricular tachycardia rates (usually between 150-250 bpm). Therefore, the correct answer is A: slow Ventricular Tachycardia. Ventricular Asystole is absence of ventricular activity, Ventricular Fibrillation is rapid and chaotic ventricular activity, and Ventricular Bradycardia is a slow heart rate in the ventricles.
