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) ...

There is regular rhythm at a rate of 42 beats/min. The first five QRS complexes are wide (0.14 sec), and no P waves are seen before or after these QRS complexes; however there appears to be a P wave ...

Wide complex tachycardia is a general term that refers to conditions that cause an unusually fast heart rate and a particular pattern on an EKG. Tachycardia is when your heart beats unusually fast, ...

After emergent cardiac catheterization and stent to the left anterior descending, she is noted to have a change in her rhythm intermittently (see ECG #2 below). What are the ECG findings and what ...
