Template:Infobox medical condition (new) Ventricular flutter is an arrhythmia, more specifically a tachycardia affecting the ventricles with a rate over 250-350 beats/min, and one of the most indiscernible. It is characterized on the ECG by a sinusoidal waveform without clear definition of the QRS and T waves. It has been considered as a possible transition stage between ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation, and is a critically unstable arrhythmia that can result in sudden cardiac death.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".[1]

It can occur in infancy,[2] youth,[3] or as an adult.

It can be induced by programmed electrical stimulation.[4][5]
