What is ventricular fibrillation?
Ventricular fibrillation is a type of abnormal heart rhythm (arrhythmia). During ventricular fibrillation, disorganized heart signals cause the lower heart chambers (ventricles) to twitch uselessly. As a result, the heart doesn't pump blood to the rest of the body.
Symptoms of ventricular fibrillation
Losing consciousness
Responses gradually getting weaker
Face is persistently pale and lips are purplish-blue
Feeling breathless
Chest pain before losing consciousness
Questions your doctor may ask to check for ventricular fibrillation
Your doctor may ask these questions to diagnose ventricular fibrillation
Have you currently regained consciousness after temporarily losing consciousness?
Are your responses gradually getting weaker?
Is your face pale and lips purplish-blue all the time?
Are you breathless or having hard time breathing?
Did you have any chest pain before losing consciousness?
Treatment for ventricular fibrillation
Ventricular fibrillation requires emergency medical treatment to prevent sudden cardiac death. The goal of emergency treatment is to restore blood flow as quickly as possible to prevent organ and brain damage. Treament options include cardiopulmonary resuscitation, defibrillation and medications to control heart rhythm.
