This is a challenging ECG in regards to determining if the wide QRS complex rhythm is from ventricular tachycardia or "SVT with aberrancy" such as AV nodal reentry tachycardia causing a rate-dependent ...

Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia is a rare, but pathognomonic rhythm for digoxin toxicity. There are two distinct QRS morphologies alternating every other beat. The QRS is wide. Both morphologies ...

hey everyone it's Nera and in this video I'm going to be going over premature ventricular contractions so let's get started pbcs are early contractions that originate in the ventricles so we're ...

Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is an abnormal heart rhythm where the bottom chambers of your heart beat too quickly. People with severe cases may experience sudden cardiac arrest. Conditions that ...

Ventricular fibrillation (VFib or VF) and ventricular tachycardia (v-tach or VT) are two types of heart arrhythmia that occur in the heart’s lower chambers called the ventricles. The ventricles ...

Depending on how the heart’s electrical activity appears on an EKG, a doctor may diagnose coarse or fine ventricular fibrillation (VF). Coarse VF appears as larger waves on an EKG compared with the ...

In a normal heart rhythm, your heart beats in a steady, even way. The upper part of your heart (atria) squeezes and pushes blood to the lower part (ventricles), pumping blood and oxygen out to the ...

If you have bigeminy (bi-JEM-uh-nee), your heart doesn't beat in a normal pattern. After every routine beat, you have a beat that comes too early, or what's known as a premature ventricular ...

A 67-year-old man with a history of dilated cardiomyopathy and a left ventricular ejection fraction of 40% presents to his primary care provider for a routine physical examination. His vital signs and ...

An arrhythmia is an atypical heartbeat that is either much faster or slower than expected. Your heartbeat may be described as chaotic, rather than steady and predictable. There are several types of ...
