Various electrocardiographic forms of ventricular tachycardia are described. After a discussion of the different pathogenetic mechanisms about this arrhythmia, the various types of pharmacological and electrical treatment are examined.
The electrophysiological changes induced by sequential infusion of histamine (H) (0.4 and 1.0 mcg/kg/min for 10 min each) were investigated by conventional ECG and High Resolution ECG (H.R.ECG). The latter permits external non-invasive recording of the potentials generated in the cardiac conduction system. H was infused i.v. in 5 normal volunteers with a mean age of 30 years. H infusions were begun with 0.4 mcg/kg/min and continued for 10 min. After a 60 min recovery period a second 10 min infusion (1 mcg/kg/min) was administered. In man H produced a dose-dependent increase in heart rate, a significant depression of the ST-T complex, and a depression in STJ point. The QRS complex duration was unmodified. H.R.ECG showed significant changes in the morphology and voltage of the atrial activity. The electrophysiological effects disappeared within a few minutes after discontinuing the infusions of H.
