Actually working in an electrophysiology lab as a paramedic for several years is quite interesting. I find that the surface correlation is not always the...
As a matter of fact, we just had this exact case in our electrophysiology lab on Monday. Older woman who was in a sinus rhythm at baseline, but when she is in...
Confering with one of the electrophysiologists I work with, his experience is usually an underlying heart block all the time, but if the AF was cardioverted...

Finally! I am not nuts...thanks for the response. I would love to see more on the case study you had if you still have a copy of it. This is one I have never...
Bill- While very rare it is highly possible that what you encountered was Afib with CHB. I have only seen this a few times and without looking at the strip I...
Was the slow rhythm regular or irregular? If regular, it was AF with CHB and slow junctional escape or ventricular escape, which I have seen several times. If...
Hello Bill, Sorry for pluggin in (very) late. This is a case I got on my archives. The complexes seem regular, but there’s a slight irregularity if you...
This illustrates well why I harp at my medic students, "If you have a 12-lead, USE IT!" If one was only monitoring I, II, and III, it is hard to see the fib...
Just as Gene is saying, for me, if I have a Zoll 1600 or something like it, say when I pull volly duty, I ALWAYS get a good picture of the atrial pattern by...
Without the advantage of intracardiac recordings, sometimes it is difficult to see fib/flutter waves and relying on a single lead is like listening to lungs in...

It sure looks like a STEMI, but without symptoms it's doubtful. To clarify, this ECG definitly shows ST segment elevation, and ST segment elevation must be...
It is also interesting to see such pronounced Uwaves in those same leads. Visible Uwaves are an indication of a repolarization abnormality. I have not seen...

Cameron, I'd like to see electrolytes (wieght lifter on an unusual diet?) and cardiac enzymes. There are no q-waves other than aVR but ~70% of MI's do not...
