Tachycardia, or an elevated heart rate, can impair coronary artery perfusion by reducing the time available for diastolic filling when the heart relaxes. Since coronary blood flow primarily occurs during diastole, an increased heart rate shortens this phase, potentially leading to insufficient oxygen delivery to the myocardium. This can exacerbate conditions like ischemia, especially in individuals with existing coronary artery disease. Additionally, the increased myocardial oxygen demand associated with tachycardia can further strain the coronary circulation.
What else can I help you with?
What is the cause of ventricular tachycardia?
Most ventricular tachycardias are associated with serious heart disease such as coronary artery blockage, cardiomyopathy, or valvular heart disease.
Coronary artery disease in the marginal arteries affect which part of the myocardium?
The penis
What causes junctional tachycardia?
Most commonly it is due to digitalis toxicity...sometime it may be due to AV node block or coronary artery disease. Juctional tachycardia may be precipitated by Hyperkalemia in a patient with conduction system disease.

Is coronary artery the largest artery?
No. The coronary arteries are not the largest arteries. The aorta is the largest artery.
What artery runs along the coronary sulcus?
