Present PMK and ICDs have some protection algorithms to prevent PMT that usually extend PVARP after premature ventricular beats or after a sequence stimulated ventricle--sensed atrium at high rate with fixed VA interval.
The cardiac rhythm disturbances were graded in: onset of arrhythmia (OA), premature ventricular beats (PVB), ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT; denoted by ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation).
Ventricular arrhythmias Both primary ventricular fibrillation (VF) and premature ventricular beats (PVCs), especially R-on-T beats, occur during the early phase of MI, when heterogeneity of electrical activity is present.
