It's the ECG's that george rejects that makes George's ECG's the best.
Retrograde Wenckebach and Reentry
Report:Pacemaker rhythm 92/min 1 Retrograde Wenckebach conduction 4 Wenckebach sequences terminated by reentry (echo) beats of pacemaker origin 4 Non-specific T wave changes 1 Comment:The pacemaker is in its rate-responding mode at 92/min, with Wenck
Single Failure to Capture
Report:Sinus rhythm 63/min 2 Complete AV dissociation 4 Pacemaker rhythm 80/min 2 Single failure to pace 4 Comment:AV block cannot be accurately diagnosed here: the atrial (sinus) rate is too slow and the ventricular (pacemaker) rate too fast. Just be
Wobbly Atrial Lead
Report: Sinus rhythm 86/min throughout 2 First degree AV block (PR 0.28”) 2 Left atrial abnormality (LAA) 1 Pacemaker rhythm (P-sensing) 86/min 2 AV interval 0.16” 2 Probable old inferior and septal infarction 1 Comment:The atrial lead became wobbl
Atrial Pacemaker Captures During 2:1 AV Block
Report: Sinus rhythm 0.5 AV sequential (known DDD) pacemaker 0.5 Atrial sensing & pacing 1.0”escape interval 1 AV interval 0.30” atrial-paced beats and one conducted sinus beat 1 Failed ventricular pacing 1 Second degree AV block 2:1 alternate paced
No Pacing and 2:1 Failure to Sense
Report:Sinus rhythm 55/min 1 Demand pacemaker: failure to pace 2 2:1 failure to sense 5 LVH voltage (SV2 25mm) 0.5 Left atrial abnormality (LAA) 0.5 Old inferior infarct 0.5 Possible old anterior infarct (loss of R height from V2 to V3) 0.5 Commen
End-of-Life Pacemaker Function
Report:Sinus rhythm 75 – 77/min 1 Third degree AV block 2 Pacemaker rhythm 31/min 2 Probable battery depletion 5 Comment:Pacemaker interrogation revealed “end-of-life” battery function, set to bipolar VVI mode at 63/min, but obviously firing at half t
VEBs in Bigeminy
Report: Sinus rhythm 67 – 71/min 1 Ventricular pacemaker 1 VVI mode 4 Ventricular fusion beats 2 VEBs 1 Bigeminal 0.5 Uniform 0.5 Comment: The interesting question is whether the atrial deflections following VEBs are blocked sinus P waves or retrog
Paced Escape - Paced Capture Bigeminy
Report:Sinus rhythm 57/min 0.5 Complete AV dissociation 0.5 Fixed pacemaker rhythm 31/min 3 Demand pacemaker escape rhythm (set at) 60/min 3 Escape-capture bigeminy 3 Comment:The original pacemaker continued to fire at 31/min as before, obviously dev
Un Unusual Morphology
Report:Sequential AV pacemaker (known ICD) rhythm 59/min 2 Composite (? Fusion) QRS morphology 8 Comment: The ventricular complexes start as expected, with an initial slur of myocardial activation lasting approximately 0.08”. The second half of each co
Pacing Illusion
Report:Sinus rhythm 1 First degree AV block (PR 0.28”) 2 Atrial-sensing pacemaker – no captures 5 Incomplete LBBB (LVH with ST/T changes) 2 Comment:The illusion of pacing is, of course, supported by the patient’s native incomplete LBBB and its left ax
