2016, April 13). Other Arrhythmias ( PACs, PVCs, AFib, Bradycardia and AV conduction disorders — potentially lethal VT/VFib ). RBBB in blunt chest trauma seems to be indicative of several RV injury. Atrial fibrillation is also a predictor of worse outcomes in this case (Alborzi). References Alborzi, Z., Zangouri, V.,

The rule of thumb is less accurate, and the risk is higher because a long QT in the presence of bradycardia ("pause dependent" Torsades) predisposes to Torsades. 6) Use a different rule of thumb for bradycardia : Manually approximate both the QT and the RR interval. 3) At heart rates below 60, far more caution is due.

Other Arrhythmias ( PACs, PVCs, AFib, Bradycardia and AV conduction disorders — potentially lethal VT/VFib ). But because of the much greater electrical mass of the LV — electrical activity ( and therefore ECG abnormalities ) from the much smaller and thinner RV are more difficult to detect.
