This is an interesting case for your students who want to delve into dysrhythmias with an eye on detail. I will start the discussion by admitting that I am not an expert of electrophysiology or complex dysrhythmias. I hope some of our dysrhythmia Gurus will delve into the rhythm and maybe even provide laddergrams.

The therapeutic and diagnostic cardiac electrophysiological uses of adenosine We can again see shortening of the PR interval and widening of the QRS complex with delta waves. But if you give adenosine, it completely shuts down the AV node and all conduction is then through the accessory pathway and will be very wide.

Admission and referral to electrophysiology is always indicated. In this case, it was able to conduct at a rate of 257 (down the AV node, then up the bypass tract) 6. These tachydysrhythmias are so fast that they can degenerate into ventricular fibrillation. Unrecognized paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
