EKG Flashcards
CI for adenosine
Transplant
Bronchospasm
LM or 3v disease
Types of AVRT
Orthodromic
Antidromic
How do they conduct
Down AV and up accessory
Down AP and up AV
1 more common than 2 in WPW
Concealed conduction
Upright p waves with prolonged PR
Mechanism - conduct down very slow pathway, usually PVCs exposed dual AV node physiology
RV pacing in lead I and V1
Positive
Negative
Hypercalcemia on ECG
Short QT
Prominent U waves
Hypocalcemia on ECG
Long isoelectric ST segment
Long QT but normal T wave duration
can be seen in LQT3 too
Features of VT
VA dissociation
AVR + suggests VT
Negative precordial concordance always VT
Positive precordial concordance typically VT
Fascicular VT
Exercise induced
Can be narrow complex
RBBB, LAFB
Sensitive to verapamil, not adenosine
Outflow tract VT on ecg
Exercise induced
Inferior axis
Breaks with adenosine
Mechanism of VT in CPVT
Delayed afterdepolarization
CPVT indications for ICD
Almost never
