A narrow QRS tachycardia at a rate of 105 beats/min. is present. No P waves are identified in front of the QRS complexes, suggesting accelerated AV junctional rhythm. However, there are two PVCs.
Left ventricular hypertrophy can be diagnosed on ECG with good specificity. When the myocardium is hypertrophied, there is a larger mass of myocardium for electrical activation to pass through; thus ...
A premature ventricular contraction occurs when a focus in the ventricle generates an action potential before the next scheduled sinoatrial nodal action potential. Ventricular bigeminy occurs when ...
Wide QRS regular tachycardia is present in Figure 1. No definite P waves are identifiable. There is one PVC in the lower tracing. During the compensatory pause, there is definitely a P wave (↓ on ...
