Ventricular fibrillation

Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is one of the common causes of sudden cardiac death. The ventricle continuously, rapidly and uniformly emits excitement more than 240 times per minute, which is called ventricular flutter. If the ventricular excitement is rapid and irregular, this is called ventricular fibrillation (VF). The frequency of ventricular fibrillation can be between 250-600 times per minute.
