    AbstractPatients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are at increased risk for cardiac arrhythmias, the most common of which can be subdivided into tachyarrhythmias and bradyarrhythmias. These arrhythmias may be the primary reason for ICU admission or may occur in the critically ill patient. This article addresses the occurrence of arrhythmias in the critically ill patient, and discusses their pathophysiology, implications, recognition, and management.Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Inc.
