Cholesterol

A fatty substance found in foods and made by the liver

Ventricular Tachycardia (V Tach)

A life threatening heart rhythm in which the heart is contracting rapidly the rate is so fast the heart is unable to pump effectively A person with V Tach can collapse and stop breathing

Ventricular Fibrillation (V Fib)

A life threatening heart rhythm in which the heart is in a disorganized state of activity. The electrical pulses are in chaos preventing the heart form pumping . A person with V Fib will collapse and stop breathing
