For full discussion of this case — See ECG Blog #191 — == The 2-lead rhythm strip shown in Figure-1 was obtained from an elderly woman who presented to the ED following a syncopal episode. On the basis of this rhythm strip — she was diagnosed as being in complete AV Block. Question #1 : Is there AV Dissociation in Figure-1 ?

What if you were asked to interpret the ECG in Figure-1 ? Figure-1: The initial ECG in today's case. ( To improve visualization — I've digitized the original ECG using PMcardio ). By the P s, Q s, 3 R Approach ( which I review in ECG Blog #185 ): Lots of P waves are present — being well seen in the long lead II rhythm strip.

Is there AV dissociation? Figure-1: The initial ECG in today's case. I’d then spend no more than 5-to-10 seconds looking at the rest of the 12-lead ECG to ensure that there is no ongoing emergency in need of immediate care ( ie, No acute MI; No hyperkalemia, etc. ). QUESTIONS: What is the rhythm? If so — WHY?

The 12-lead ECG and long lead II rhythms shown in Figure-1 — was obtained from an older man with a recent history of “easy fatiguability” and a presyncopal episode. QUESTIONS: How would YOU interpret the ECG in Figure-1 ? Is the group beating due to the Mobitz I or Mobitz II type of 2nd-degree AV block?

You are asked to interpret the ECG in Figure-1. What is the rhythm in ECG #1 ? MY Thoughts on the ECG in Figure-1: I routinely begin assessment of each 12-lead ECG I encounter — with interpretation of the rhythm. To do this — I apply the P s, Q s, 3 R Approach ( See ECG Blog #185 — for review of my system ).

Imagine the only information provided for the ECG in Figure-1 — is that it was obtained from a 60-year old man with new CP ( C hest P ain ). QUESTIONS: In view of this brief history — How would YOU interpret this ECG in Figure-1 ? Is the cardiac rhythm related to the 12-lead ECG? Figure-1: The initial ECG in today’s case.
