Fig. 16.1 Echocardiography, four-chamber view. From left to right: two-dimensional imaging shows thickened mitral leaflet with posterior leaflet prolapse (arrow). Color Doppler shows severe eccentric mitral regurgitation swirling toward interatrial…

Fig. 8.1 (a, b) Routine EKG at rest. Despite correct biventricular pacing (axis directed upper right), the QRS complex is wide. Several lead configurations have been tried assessing EKG and…

Fig. 4.1 Brain axial CT showing left temporal focal bleeding Vital Signs Heart rate: 80 bpm Blood pressure: 108/80 mmHg Oxygen saturation: 98 % Physical Examination General: traumatic scalp wound…

Fig. 14.1 ECG sinus rhythm (heart rate 56 bpm), first-degree atrioventricular block, anterior fascicular block, incomplete right ventricular block, characteristic epsilon waves in leads V1–V4, and also inverted T-waves in…

Fig. 6.1 EKG at rest while the patient was asymptomatic Echocardiography (Not Shown) Normal both atria size (LA diameter M-mode = 3.6 cm; area 4c = 18 cm2, RA area 4c = 16 cm2). Normal size…

Fig. 3.1 Rest ECG showing diffuse ST elevation Cardiac echocardiography (Fig. 3.2) showed circumferential pericardial effusion and normal dimensions and function of the cardiac chambers, mild mitral regurgitation, and mild…

Fig. 2.1 ECG of patients during chest pain Echocardiography: moderate concentric hypertrophy (LV mass/BSA 135 g/m2, relative wall thickness 0.45) with preserved LV global function (estimated ejection fraction of 56…

Fig. 1.1 (a, b) Patient ECG: sinus rhythm, third-grade atrioventricular block, narrow QRS escape rhythm with a heart rate of 33 bpm, ST-segment elevation in the inferior leads (DII, DIII,…
