ventricular

listen to the pronunciation of ventricular
İngilizce - İngilizce
Of or relating to a ventricle or ventriculus
of or relating to a ventricle (of the heart or brain)
Of or pertaining to a ventricle; bellied
{s} of or pertaining to a ventricle or a ventriculus
ventricular fibrillation
Condition where the cardiac muscle is contracted irregularly and rapidly
ventricular aneurysm
a localized dilation or protrusion on the wall of the left ventricle of the heart (occurring after a myocardial infarction)
ventricular fibrillation
An often fatal form of arrhythmia characterized by rapid, irregular fibrillar twitching of the ventricles of the heart in place of normal contractions, resulting in a loss of pulse. Uncoordinated contraction of the muscle fibres of the heart's ventricles (see arrhythmia). Causes include heart attack, electric shock, anoxia, abnormally high potassium or low calcium in the blood, and digitalis or epinephrine poisoning (see drug poisoning). Death soon follows if circulation is not restored with electric shocks (defibrillation) or drugs supplemented by chest compressions (as in cardiopulmonary resuscitation). See also atrial fibrillation
ventricular fibrillation
fibrillation of heart muscles resulting in interference with rhythmic contractions of the ventricles and possibly leading to cardiac arrest
ventricular septal defect
a common congenital heart defect; an abnormal opening in the septum dividing the ventricles allows blood to pass directly from the left to the right ventricle; large openings may cause congestive heart failure
catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia
an autosomal dominant inherited heart disorder caused by a mutation in voltage gated ion channels and resulting in arrhythmias. CPVT may cause exercise-induced ventricular arrhythmias and/or syncope occurring during physical activity or acute emotion, but demonstrates no structural problems of the heart. Ventricular tachycardia may self-terminate or degenerate into ventricular fibrillation, causing sudden death without immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The majority of events occur during childhood and more than 60% of affected individuals will have a first episode of syncope or cardiac arrest by age 20
premature ventricular contraction
irregularity of cardiac rhythm; recurrent occurrences can be a precursor of ventricular fibrillation
