Wenckebach AV Block in Marked Sinus Tachycardia
Report: Sinus tachycardia 138/min Second degree AV block, Möbitz 1 Probable acute inferior infarction Comment: It is unwise, generally, to diagnose infarction from rhythm strips, but this one has all three indicative changes of acute infarction: Q wav
SVEBs in Bigeminy or 2:1 AV Block?
Report: Sinus rhythm 72/min Second degree AV block, 2:1 Ventriculophasic sinus arrhythmia Left bundle branch block Comment: The ventriculophasic effect is so marked that one cannot be completely certain that the atrial complexes at the end of T wave
Möbitz 2 AV Block
Report: Sinus rhythm Advanced second degree AV block, Möbitz 2 Ventricular pacemaker Intermittent failure to xsense Intraventricular conduction defect, unspecified Comment: The pacemaker was stopped after the first beat in the upper strip, turned on
Respiratory & Ventriculophasic Sinus Arrhythmia
Report: Sinus rhythm Respiratory sinus arrhythmia Ventriculophasic sinus arrhythmia Second degree AV block, Möbitz 1 Period of 2:1 conduction + one 5:4 cycle LVH with ST/T changes ± digoxin effect Comment: The ventriculophasic effect â P-P inter
Idioventricular Rhythm in Complete AV Block
Report: Sinus arrhythmia & bradycardia Junctional rhythm 48/min, also blocked Third degree AV block Idioventricular escape rhythm 10 â 30/min Comment: The (blocked) sinus rhythm is slow and irregular. Eventually it is replaced by somewhat more const
Interpolated VEBs in Advanced AV Block
Report: Sinus tachycardia 108/min Second degree, advanced (4:1, 3:1) AV block VEBs, multiform, interpolated Left bundle branch block Comment: The ætiology of the block remained unknown; it could have been due to polyarteritis nodosa through its assoc
Trigeminal Bradycardia
Report: Sinus tachycardia Advanced second degree AV block 9 second pause Junctional escape beats Comment: Some sinus beats are probably conducted, e.g., first two in the top strip. The long pause is terminated by a junctional escape (first beat in the
Advanced AV Block Following VEBs
Report: Sinus rhythm VEBs Triplet of ventricular tachycardia Advanced second degree AV block Comment: The episodes of ventricular standstill all follow the VEBs. The VEBs appear to have retrograde conduction, which may account for sinus rates being
Spurious ST Segment Elevation
Report: Sinus bradycardia 43/min Left atrial abnormality First degree AV block Escape-capture bigeminy Third degree AV block (mid-second strip onward) Junctional rhythm 64/min Comment: The broad shallow sinus P waves, with their first degree AV bl
Wenckebach Conduction of Sinus Tachycardia
Report: Sinus tachycardia 116/min SVEB Second degree AV block, Möbitz 1 Comment: Some of the blocked P waves look different in shape from others, due to their position on the preceding T wave. Their timing easily distinguishes them from blocked SVEBs.
