The EMedHome Question of the Day is:
What differentiates nonsustained ventricular tachycardia as opposed to sustained VT?
Scroll Down for the Answer
The Answer is:
NSVT terminates spontaneously without hemodynamic compromise. Sustained VT lasts > 30 seconds, requires an intervention for termination or produces severe hemodynamic compromise or syncope before terminating spontaneously (Mayo Clin Proc, 3/09).
