An idioventricular rhythm is very similar to ventricular tachycardia (VT), except the ventricular rate is less than 60. All other characteristics of ventricular tachycardia apply, including the ...

The ECG shows regular P waves at 60 beats per minute (bpm) with no conduction to the ventricles. The ventricular rate is about 70 bpm with QRS duration of 0.20 and a left bundle branch block (LBBB) ...

The correct diagnosis is sinus bradycardia and accelerated idioventricular rhythm (Figure 2). Figure 2. Courtesy of Philip J. Podrid, MD. The rhythm is slightly irregular at a rate of 50-54 beats/min.

The correct diagnosis is accelerated idioventricular rhythm (slow ventricular tachycardia) (Figure 2). Although recent oral surgery could suggest endocarditis, it is not definitively present. The ...
