• Ventricular arrhythmias arise from the following mechanisms:
Premature ventricular beat (e.g. premature ventricular contraction and ventricular geminy)
Ventricular escape beat (e.g. ventricular escape beat and rhythm)
Tachycardia-induced ventricular ectopic beat (e.g. ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation)
• Examples of ventricular arrhythmias are listed below.
