Atrial flutter and atrial tachycardia
Fig. 44.2 Atrial tachycardia. This can be a challenging ECG to read. Start from first principles. Look at leads II and V1 to determine the rhythm. Lead II shows movement…
Sudden cardiac death
Fig. 28.2 Coronary care unit (CCU) monitoring showing bradycardia, rhythm uncertain (possibly sinus with a long PR interval, possibly heart block), then a very fast and disorganized ventricular arrhythmia, losing…
Pulmonary hypertension
Fig. 35.2 ECG of right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH). Unremarkable P waves. Normal PR interval. Borderline right axis deviation, QRS axis ≥ 90° (iso-electric R wave aVL, where R = S…
