This case report describes a unique instance of a patient developing AEF following AF ablation, accompanied by ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction. Upon admission, physical examination and laboratory tests revealed vital signs within abnormal ranges and indicators suggesting inflammation and potential myocardial injury.

80%, in patients with a previous myocardial infarction (.) If a wide complex tachycardia occurs, the probability is very high that it is a ventricular tachycardia (approx. Here we see a broad complex tachycardia that looks like an RBBB + LAFB, which is regular. In this constellation, 3 causes must be considered: 1.

Angiogram: "ACS - Non ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction. This is a HUGE myocardial infarction. This is one of the highest troponins I have ever seen, and there are many studies using MRI that show that peak troponin is a reasonably good marker of infarct size. Culprit is 100% occlusion in the proximal LCX.

AFIB/AFL – atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter episodes. Other times, an irregular recording can signal a medical emergency, such as a myocardial infarction or a dangerous arrhythmia. Supraventricular tachycardia – more than 7 consecutive complexes of supraventricular beats at a rate of > 100 bpm.

So we activated the Cath Lab Angiogram: Impression and Recommendations: Culprit for the patient's anterior ST segment myocardial infarction and out of hospital V-fib cardiac arrest is a thrombotic occlusion of the mid LAD The first troponin returned barely elevated at 36 ng/L (URL = 35) In our study of initial troponin in STEMI, 26.8%

The rhythm differential for narrow, regular, and tachycardic is sinus rhythm, SVT (encompassing AVNRT, AVRT, atrial tach, etc), and atrial flutter (another supraventricular rhythm which is usually considered separately from SVTs). Therefore this patient is either in some form of SVT or atrial flutter. If so, why?
