PEARL # 2: When the rate of AFib is rapid — this irregular tachycardia may look regular when it is not. That the rhythm is AFib — is easier to appreciate in Figure-3. Clearly, the rhythm is AFib — here with a controlled ventricular response. Figure-3: Today's rhythm is not regular ( See text ).

Affecting 60 million people worldwide 1 , the prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AFib) is expected to increase by 60% by 2050 due to an aging population and rising cardiometabolic risk factors 2. In addition, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that more than 12 million Americans will have AFib by 2030 3.

The combined solutions are expected to enhance performance and streamline workflows for electrophysiologists during catheter ablation procedures to treat atrial fibrillation , AFib. 1 Approximately 33 million patients worldwide are living with AFib. 1 Approximately 33 million patients worldwide are living with AFib.

MY THOUGHTS on ECG #1: My initial impression on looking at the ECG in Figure-1 — was that the rhythm was either rapid AFib in a patient with WPW — or — PMVT ( P oly M orphic VT ). The reason I initially thought the underlying rhythm was AFib — is that no atrial activity is seen in any lead and the rhythm “looks” irregular. See text ).

I see the following: Although there is no long lead rhythm strip — we can see that the rhythm is AFib with a controlled ventricular response ( ie, irregularly irregular rhythm without P waves — and with a heart rate between ~70-110/minute ). Regarding Intervals: There is no PR interval ( since the rhythm is AFib ).

Among the fast Supraventricular Rhythms: This is not AFib — because the rhythm is regular. P utting I t A ll T ogether : — The Rhythm in Figure-1 What we have just described is the following: A regular WCT ( = W ide- C omplex T achycardia ) at a rate very close to 300/minute — without clear sign of atrial activity.
