Ventricular tachycardia can occur with many variations of the QRS morphology, depending on where the arrhythmia originates, which sometimes makes diagnosis on ECG challenging. Below are two ...

Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia is quite rare, but pathognomonic for digoxin toxicity. This ECG has two distinct QRS morphologies alternating every other beat. The QRS complex duration is ...

An EKG records your heart’s electrical activity. Other tests used to diagnose ventricular tachycardia include: Holter monitor. This is a portable device you wear outside of the doctor’s office.

The AI analysis resulted in 14 times fewer missed diagnoses of conditions like complete heart block, ventricular tachycardia, ...

When possible, a 12-lead ECG of the tachycardia and recordings of the initiation and termination of the arrhythmia should be reviewed. Reversible causes of ventricular tachycardia, such as ...

This ECG (Figure 1), recorded in the emergency room, shows a wide complex tachycardia at 205 bpm. Wide complex tachycardias are more likely to be ventricular tachycardia (VT) than supraventricular ...

An EKG shows these waves ... The shockable rhythms are coarse VF, fine VF, and sustained ventricular tachycardia. Atrial fibrillation (AF) and VF are both arrhythmias. AF is an irregular heartbeat ...

BACKGROUND: Penetrance and risk of ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) are increasingly recognized as being genotype specific. Therefore, ...

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT ... you’ll likely get a test called an electrocardiogram (EKG) to record your normal heart rhythm at rest. You'll then do a supervised ...

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a heart condition that ... and has a characteristic appearance on an electrocardiogram (EKG). While VT varies in severity, it is usually a medical emergency ...
