Abstract
Tachyarrhythmias are abnormal heart rhythms with a ventricular rate of 100 or more beats per minute. These rhythms are classified as either narrow or wide-complex tachycardia with further subdivision into regular or irregular rhythm. Patients are frequently symptomatic presenting with palpitations, diaphoresis, dyspnea, chest pain, dizziness, and syncope. Sudden cardiac death may occur with certain arrhythmias. Recognizing tachyarrhythmia and understanding its management is important as a wide spectrum of neurologic complications have been associated with such arrhythmias. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive overview on the neurologic complications of tachyarrhythmias, neurologic adverse events of antiarrhythmic interventions, and neurologic conditions that can precipitate tachyarrhythmia.
