LBBB with RAD: Acute Inferior Infarction
Report:Sinus rhythm 96-100/min Third degree AV block Junctional escape rhythm 45/min Left bundle branch block Right axis deviation +95o Acute inferior infarction Comment:Three contributors to heart failure are present in this trace: Acute infarction
Left Axis Deviation: Inferior Infarction
Report:Sinus rhythm 60/min Left axis deviation â60o Inferior and anterior infarction, probably old Comment:Deep Q waves of inferior infarction are a common cause of LAD in cardiac patients. They distinguish infarction from LAHB, which requires rS mor
AV Block in Inferior Infarction
Report: Top: Sinus rhythm VEB Third degree AV block Junctional escape rhythm 42/min Second strip: Sinus tachycardia 104/min Second degree AV block, 2:1 conduction First degree AV block in conducted beats (PR 0.44â) Third strip: Sinus tachycar
Let the Sleeping Dog Lie?
Report:Sinus arrhythmia 45 - 68/min Second degree AV block Two blocked P waves Comment:It is disconcerting to see a spontaneous 3.7" pause, but (i) the patient had a recent inferior MI and (ii) remained asymptomatic during similar episodes while awake.

VEBs: Long Compensatory Pauses
Report:Sinus rhythm 97/min VEBs Right bundle branch block Probable old inferior infarction Comment:The pauses containing the VEBs are obviously longer than two sinus cycles. This admits only one explanation â the VEBs have been conducted retrogradel
Semiventricular Tachycardia
Report: Sinus tachycardia 100/min VEBs in bigeminy Possible ventricular fusion Left axis deviation (LAD) â 40o LVH with ST/T changes Inferior infarction, probably old Comment: Semiventricular is one of my own neologisms. Foreigners often take grea
