Her Apple Watch suddenly told her that she is in atrial fibrillation. Patients with healthy AV nodes who are not on AV nodal blockers and who are not hyperkalemic should have a rapid ventricular response if they have paroxysmal Atrial fibrillation. I focus my comment on a few additional aspects regarding new AFib.

Interpreting the waves and detecting abnormalities: Typically, the heart conducts electricity in a pathway starting in the sinoatrial node (SA), our heart’s “natural pacemaker”, located in the wall of the right atrium. AFIB/AFL – atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter episodes.

Here is the computer interpretation: ATRIAL FIBRILLATION WITH RAPID VENTRICULAR RESPONSE WITH ABERRANT CONDUCTION OR VENTRICULAR PREMATURE COMPLEXES LEFT AXIS DEVIATION [QRS AXIS beyone -30] NONSPECIFIC ST and T-WAVE ABNORMALITY The over-reading physician confirmed this diagnosis, which is incorrect. It is not atrial fibrillation.

Written by Willy Frick A woman in her 90s with a history of end stage renal disease and complete heart block status post dual chamber pacemaker presented from home with acute onset dyspnea. In this case, it is atrial fibrillation. As per Dr. Frick — pacemaker spikes are best seen in lead aVL of ECG #1. ECG is shown below.
