A young lady with wide complex tachycardia. My first time actually making this diagnosis de novo in real life in the ED!

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

When I teach important syncope ECG patterns to my residents, I have always had to find case reports and review articles to show them the rare epsilon waves in the past. There is mild-moderate tricuspid valve regurgitation. They are rare and hard to find in normal practice in the ED. RVEF 34%, RV is mildly enlarged.

Catheter ablation of typical atrial flutter improves cardiac chamber size and function

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology

Abstract Introduction Cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) dependent atrial flutter (AFL) is one of the most common atrial arrhythmias involving the right atrium (RA) for which radiofrequency catheter ablation has been widely used as a therapy of choice. However, there is limited data on the effect of this intervention on cardiac size and function.
