She was awake, alert, well perfused, with normal mental status and overall unremarkable physical exam except for a regular tachycardia, possible rales at both bases, some mild RUQ abdominal tenderness. Thus, I believe it is a regular, monomorphic, wide complex tachycardia. Or it could simply still be classic VT. What is the Diagnosis?
Advanced arrhythmic substrate consisting of significant conduction abnormalities due to inflammation and fibrosis can be identified by specific electrocardiogram signs, such as fragmented QRS and ε wave. Among the ventricular tachycardia (VT) characteristics, multiple morphologies of monomorphic VTs (OR: 10.9,
Multifocal Atrial Tachycardia 2. A deep neural network for 12-lead electrocardiogram interpretation outperforms a conventional algorithm, and its physician over-read, in the diagnosis of atrial fibrillation. The rhythm is indeed irregularly irregular, so atrial fibrillation must be considered. Sinus with multifocal PACs 3. Poon et al.
Abstract Introduction Typical atrial flutter (AFL) is a macroreentrant tachycardia in which intracardiac conduction rotates counterclockwise around the tricuspid annulus. The 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) and three-dimensional (3D) electroanatomical maps were analyzed.
Methods and Results A 21-year-old female with supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and pre-excitation on electrocardiogram (ECG) underwent electrophysiology study (EPS) confirming an AS-AP with anterograde and retrograde conduction. Ablation in the NCC achieved immediate and persistent anterograde conduction block.
Follow-up contained regular visits at our outpatient clinic at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months including 7-day Holter electrocardiograms. ms after) and AF termination to atrial tachycardia (AT) or sinus rhythm (SR) in 12 patients (24%). Patients were mainly suffering from long-standing persistent AF (mean AF duration 50.30 ± 54.28
At the bottom of the post, I have re-printed the section on aVR in my article on the ECG in ACS from the Canadian Journal of Cardiology: New Insights Into the Use of the 12-Lead Electrocardiogram for Diagnosing Acute Myocardial Infarction in the Emergency Department Case 1. Updates on the Electrocardiogram in Acute Coronary Syndromes.
This article discusses correction of the QT interval for rate. The article is written by Dr. Smith and Dr. Friedman. Answer : you must treat the patient's underlying condition causing sinus tachycardia, and repeat the ECG at the lower heart rate. In that article, they do not say what is a dangerously short QT is (e.g.
The article is edited by Smith. Otherwise vitals after intubation were only notable for tachycardia. An initial EKG was obtained: Computer read: sinus tachycardia, early acute anterior infarct. Induced Brugada-type electrocardiogram, a sign for imminent malignant arrhythmias. This was submitted by Alexandra Schick.
If the patient has Abnormal Vital Signs (fever, hypotension, tachycardia, or tachypnea, or hypoxemia), then these are the primary issue to address, as there is ongoing pathology which must be identified. Annotated Bibliography For an excellent overview of ED Syncope management , see this article by Kessler C et al.
There is sinus tachycardia and also a large R-wave in aVR. Drug toxicity , especially diphenhydramine , which has sodium channel blocking effects, and also anticholinergic effects which may result in sinus tachycardia, hyperthermia, delirium, and dry skin. Her temperature was 106 degrees. As part of the workup, she underwent an ECG.
