She had a single chamber ICD/Pacemaker implanted several years prior due to ventricular tachycardia. Are you confident there is no ischemia? Answer : The ECG above shows a regular wide complex tachycardia. Said differently, the ECG shows a rather slow ventricular tachycardia with a 2:1 VA conduction. Is this: 1.

He was rushed by residents into our critical care room with a diagnosis of STEMI, and they handed me this ECG: There is sinus tachycardia with ST elevation in II, III, and aVF, as well as V4-V6. ACS and STEMI generally do not cause tachycardia unless there is cardiogenic shock. He had this ECG recorded. Are the lungs clear?

Mechanism is thought to be due to sustained sympathetic stimulation, probably caused by dysfunction of insular cortex resulting in reversible neurogenic damage to the myocardium which could include contraction bands and subendocardial ischemia [2]. But the number of persons with lobar hemorrhage in that study was only 17%. 109.556753.

Initial vital signs include: NIBP 99/58 HR 150-160 (trend) RR 10 (spontaneous, but shallow) SpO2 86 (RA) BBS CTA The initial rhythm strip is attached: Figure 1 There is a wide complex tachycardia of varying morphology, amplitude, and R-R cycle length.

The EKG is diagnostic of acute inferior, posterior, and lateral OMI superimposed on “LV aneurysm” morphology. Whether these EKGs show myocarditis, a normal variant, or something else, they are overall not typical of transmural ischemia of the anterior or high lateral walls. Patient 2 , EKG 1: What do you think? It was stented.

Prior ECG available on file from 2 months before: We do not know the clinical events happening during this ECG, but there is borderline tachycardia, PVCs, and likely some evidence of subendocardial ischemia with small STDs maximal in V5-6/II, slight reciprocal STE in aVR. QS waves from V2-V5 consistent with LV aneurysm morphology.

The only time you see this without ischemia is when there is an abnormal QRS, such as LVH, LBBB, LV aneurysm (old MI with persistent STE) or WPW." Here is the patient's troponin I profile: These were interpreted as due to demand ischemia, or type II MI. ng/mL is seldom a result of demand ischemia (type 2 MI).
