Northwest Axis of Ventricular Tachycardia
Report: Ventricular tachycardia 167/min Comment: The diagnosis of VT rests on monophasic R wave in V1, rS in V6 and the bizarre, ‘Northwest’ axis in the limb leads. In V1 there is a soupçon of rabbit ears, with the left one taller than the right. In the
Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia
Report: Ventricular tachycardia 162/min Comment: The patient had dilated right atrium and ventricle, with normal, mildly hypertrophied left ventricle. The coronary arteries were also normal. In Casualty, adenosine 6 + 12 mg, verapamil 2.5 mg, then sotalo
Ventricular Tachycardia: A-V Dissociation
Report:Ventricular tachycardia 150/min A-V dissociation Comment:This is, again, a LBBB-like tachycardia with normal axis, in fact diagnosed by the computer as “LBBB”. This is obviously not the case in view of the slow and notched, laboured descent to th
Torsade de Pointes?
Report: Sinus/junctional rhythm SVEBs R-on-T VEBs Runs of multiform ventricular tachycardia ? torsade de pointes Comment: The purists are probably correct in reserving the name torsade(s) de pointes for multiform VT with swinging axis and a backgrou
Upright Retrograde P Waves
Report: Ventricular tachycardia 154 - 142/min Retrograde 1:1 conduction Upright retrograde P waves? Spontaneous termination after slowing to 142/min Junctional escape complex Non-specific ST/T changes VEB Comment: The tachycardia resembles, superfi
Retrograde Block in Ventricular Tachycardia
Report:Ventricular tachycardia 118/min 1:1 retrograde conduction (top) Ventricular tachycardia 180/min 2:1 retrograde block (middle) Comment: The retrograde atrial waves are seen as typical sharp upright deflections in MCL1 or V1 (Marriott lead). T
Dressler Beats in VT
Report: Ventricular tachycardia 160/min Spontaneous termination Ventricular fusion beats Sinus tachycardia 120/min Comment: The fusion beat during a run of VT is known as Dressler beat12. Note how it is easier to spot fusion beats looking at their r
Ventricular Tachycardia or Atrial Flutter?
Report:Ventricular tachycardia 250/min Comment:The trace is bizarre enough to qualify for VT; the marked respiratory swing in some leads gives it a multiform appearance. The rate, however, remains uniform and simultaneous leads confirm the basically uni
Tachycardie Préfibrillatoire
Report: Ventricular tachycardia, multiform > 300/min ?Torsade de pointes ?Ventricular flutter Sinus rhythm VEBs ? aberrant(RBBB) junctional premature beats R-on-T phenomenon Comment: This is the fastest spontaneously terminating VT I have seen so fa
Dimorphic (Alternating) Ventricular Tachycardia
Report:Ventricular tachycardia 182/min Comment:The rhythm is slightly irregular and, at least in V1, there are two, possibly three, different morphologies; this is, by itself, would be evidence for ventricular ectopic origin. More likely, however, judgin
