A member asked:
What is the heart rate range for ventricular tachycardia? (slowest to fastest levels)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
100 to >200: definition of VT is rate 100 or higher and origin from bottom chamber, R or L. Rate of VT depends on the reason for VT, level of adrenaline, stresses on heart such as blocked artery, etc. Slow VT would be closer to low 100's and fast VT closer to 160-200. There are other types of tachycardia coming from upper chambers and the middle of the heart, AV node
