I had a pt that was admitted to the hospital for Tikosin therapy. They had a paced rhythm with an underlying A fib. On Tikosin we have to measure the QTc 2...
Hi Nicole, Yes the 12-lead can calculate the QT interval however it may not. This medication should not be used if the QTc exceeds 500 msec (440 to initiate). ...

Phil, There is a problem. See the axis of baseline aVR and then in 7lead831.jpg? It changed. With that change is also a widened QRS and a prolonged QT. I ...

Considering the relative similarity in the morphology of the P waves (with the exception of the last rhythm strip where a change occurs) and the absence of ...
Hey guys, Is it too late for me to add another possibility to the differential? Notice in the 12lead that V1-V3 have epsilon waves (new term for me), they also...
It may be semantics, but to my read of the pre-op 12-lead, the bypass tract isn't hidden or inactive: the delta wave of WPW is there to see. In other words,...
No this is not a study we use this Tikosyn if Betapace or Amniodarone does not work to keep the patient out of an atrial arrhythmia and keep them in a SR. We...
I favor what Tom wrote. At the end of the case, we usually antagonize neuromuscular blockade with an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. To counteract the...
Phil, I may be wrong -- often am. But despite the short QRS duration, my money is still on the existence of an accessory pathway. When I magnify the...
I'll get the EKG read by one of the EP guys here (takes a few days). The official read by cardiology was normal. Any thoughts Paul or Dr James? Phil ...
