Learn About Paroxysmal Ventricular Fibrillation

What is the definition of Paroxysmal Ventricular Fibrillation?
A rare, genetic, cardiac rhythm disease characterized by ventricular fibrillation in the absence of any structural or functional heart disease, or known repolarization abnormalities. The presence of J waves is associated with a higher risk of nocturnal ventricular fibrillation events and a higher risk of recurrence.
What are the alternative names for Paroxysmal Ventricular Fibrillation?
  • Paroxysmal ventricular fibrillation
  • IVF
  • Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation
  • Paroxysmal familial ventricular fibrillation
  • Ventricular fibrillation, paroxysmal familial
