Question

According to the National Institute of Health, ventricular tachycardia is a fast, regular beating of the ventricles that may last for only a few seconds or for much longer. A few beats of ventricular tachycardia often doesn't cause problems. However, episodes that last for more than a few seconds can be dangerous. Ventricular tachycardia can turn into other, more serious arrhythmias, such as ventricular fibrillation.
Based on the passage above, how will prolonged ventricular tachycardia affect blood pressure?

1. It will increase blood pressure because the ventricles are contracting with more force.
2. It will increase blood pressure because the ventricles are filling with more blood between beats. (WRONGG!)
3. It will decrease blood pressure because there is a longer rest period beats of the ventricles
4. It will decrease blood pressure because the ventricles are filling with less blood between beats.

Answer 1

Answer:

1 makes the most sense

Explanation:

There is no way blood pressure will be decreased especially if your ventricles are erratically contracting for a long period of time. So 3 and 4 are out. And you said number 2 is wrong so my finally answer is 1.
