Brugada Syndrome is a genetic disorder characterised by right bundle branch block pattern with ST segment elevation and T wave inversion in right precordial leads. Life threatening ventricular
In atrial fibrillation there is no effective contraction of the atria. The fibrillary waves are of low amplitude and many of them do not get conducted to the
Belhassen's VT is a fast rhythm originating from the left ventricle. VT is short for ventricular tachycardia. It is named after the person who described it as a
ECG shows inverted P waves in inferior leads, indicating that atrial activation is spreading from below upwards, suggestive of focus in low atrium / high junction.
Four criteria for diagnosis of complete heart block on the ECG are constant RR interval, constant PP interval, varying PR interval and PP interval shorter than RR interval.
Ventricular tachycardia can be treated with intravenous amiodarone or lignocaine. In case of hemodynamic compromise, electrical cardioversion with a direct current shock is needed.
ECG showing right ventricular apical pacing in VVI mode with very wide QRS due left ventricular myocardial damage and associated coarse atrial fibrillation.
