A member asked:

Doctor ..do you know how we can keep the patient alive after ventricular arhythmia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

What kind: Depends entirely on the nature of the ventricular arrhythmia, its reversibility, and the overall condition of the heart. In the WORST case scenario, an implanted cardiac defibrillator is used to improve survival.
