ECG Quiz: Questions: Salient findings and interpretation. If this patient had pulmonary stenosis, what would be estimated right ventricular systolic pressure?

Neonatal atrial flutter is a rare arrhythmia of the newborn. Often the fast heart rate in the fetus is considered a sign of fetal distress. In this ECG

In dextro transposition of great arteries (D-TGA), there is: Correct answer: 1. Atrioventricular concordance and ventriculoarterial discordance

ECG showing right bundle branch block. Right bundle branch block is characterised by an RSR’ pattern with the R’ being slurred, producing a QRS duration of 120 msec

Short run of ventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation: Underlying rhythm is atrial fibrillation as there are no P waves and it is an irregular rhythm.  Short run of wide

Initiation and spontaneous termination of SVT Initial monitor screen shot shows initiation of SVT and the second one shows spontaneous termination of SVT. SVPC to SVT Monitor screenshot showing initiation

ECG filter settings and detection of pacemaker spikes In modern day digital ECGs, ECG filter settings can beautify the tracings, but vital information can be filtered out, as

Atrial pacing ECG ECG showing atrial pacing artefact before each P wave Pacing artefacts (stimulus artefacts or pacing spikes) are seen before each P wave. P waves have

AF with slow ventricular rate Atrial fibrillation (AF) with slow ventricular rate Fine fibrillary waves are seen throughout the baseline, indicating fine atrial fibrillation. When the fibrillary waves

ECG showing isorhythmic AV dissociation Isorhythmic AV dissociation is one of the three forms of AV (atrioventricular) dissociations which can be noted on the ECG. Complete heart block
