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 ...
The diagnosis is normal sinus rhythm, interpolated premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) in a trigeminal pattern, retrograde concealed conduction, intraventricular conduction delay, and old inferior ...
More than 300 million EKGs (short for electrocardiogram, a test that checks heart rhythm and electrical signals of the heart) are conducted around the world each year, according to a study published ...
