Cardiac arrhythmia is usually fatal unless reversed by electric defibrillation. Cardiac arrhythmia is also sometimes referred to as ventricular fibrillation.
Ventricular Fibrillation
Not always, no. It depends on the type of arrhythmia you have. I, for instance, have one; it is not fatal.
Reggie White was a football player in the National Football League. He died on December 26, 2004 due to a fatal cardiac arrhythmia. This is thought to have been caused by cardiac and pulmonary sarcoidosis, which Reggie had been living with for years.
Electrical current that passes through the head or thorax produces the most serious injuries, including fatal arrhythmia, direct cardiac damage, respiratory arrest, direct brain injury, and paralysis
An event in which the heart abruptly stops or develops a very abnormal arrhythmia that prevents it from pumping blood is known as cardiac arrest. This condition can lead to loss of consciousness and, if not treated promptly, can be fatal. Immediate medical intervention, such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or defibrillation, is crucial to restore normal heart function.
Heart arrhythmia is a condition in which the heart beats too fast, too slow or irregularly. Most of the time heart arrhythmia is harmless, but in some cases it can be very bothersome or even fatal. It is important to work closely with you doctor to minimize risks.
A fatal heart rhythm, often referred to as a lethal arrhythmia, is an abnormal heart rhythm that can lead to sudden cardiac arrest and death if not treated promptly. Common types include ventricular fibrillation, where the heart's electrical activity becomes chaotic, preventing effective pumping of blood, and ventricular tachycardia, which can also disrupt normal heart function. These conditions require immediate medical intervention, such as defibrillation, to restore a normal heartbeat and prevent fatal outcomes.

Ventricular fibrillation (V fib, VF) is a fatal dysrhythmia that occurs as a result of multiple weak ectopic foci in the ventricles. In other words, there is NO coordinated atrial or ventricular contraction and NO palpable pulse. Ventricular tachycardia (VT or V tach) have three or more PVCs with a rate of >100
there are many, as an example, ventricular fibrillation, may reach 300/min, fatal. please, no self-diagnostics. have a problem - see GP
