Wide QRS Complex Tachycardia [PDF]

open access: possibleAACN Advanced Critical Care, 1992
Electrocardiographic monitoring for dysrhythmias is a major responsibility of critical care nurses, and patients with wide QRS complex tachycardias present a challenge. Criteria for differentiating the impulse origin as ventricular or supraventricular are well documented: QRS duration, QRS morphology, QRS axis, and presence of atrioventricular ...

THE QRS COMPLEX OF THE ELECTROCARDIOGRAM

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1943
The electrocardiogram is a photographic record of the differences in electrical potential existing between two points on the body surface at every instant during the time the record is being taken. On the ordinates of the record one reads the potential differences; on the abscissas the time is given.

Narrow QRS Complex Tachycardias

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1995
Regular narrow QRS complex tachycardias are a common problem encountered by general internists or family practitioners. Although such tachycardias often occur in patients with a normal heart and seldom represent life-threatening conditions, they may cause bothersome symptoms.

Wide QRS Complex Tachycardias

Medical Clinics of North America, 2001
Wide QRS complex tachycardia is a common clinical occurrence and presents a diagnostic challenge for the physician. History, physical examination, chest radiographs, and electrocardiographic analysis are important in making the correct diagnosis. Diagnosis of ventricular tachycardia is supported by history of prior myocardial infarction or congestive ...

Wide-QRS Complex Tachycardia

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2018
In a man with a wide-QRS complex tachycardia, a history of an inferior left ventricular scar, atrioventricular dissociation during the tachycardia, and a QRS morphology inconsistent with right or left bundle branch block exclude a diagnosis of supraventricular tachycardia with aberrant ventricular conduction due to bundle branch block or ventricular ...

Narrow QRS Complex Tachycardias

AACN Advanced Critical Care, 2007
Narrow QRS complex tachycardias are either atrioventricular (AV) nodal passive or AV nodal active. AV nodal passive tachycardias do not require the participation of the AV node in maintenance of the tachycardia. Examples are atrial tachycardia, atrial flutter, and atrial fibrillation.

Very Wide QRS Complexes

Hospital Practice, 1984
A 65-year-old man is seen in the emergency room for an episode of tachycardia that began 30 minutes ago. He had a myocardial infarction three years ago. Since then, he has had recurrent bouts of tachycardia diagnosed as ventricular tachycardia Treatment with quinidine, procainamide, disopyramide, and several beta-adrenergic blocking drugs was ...

Estimation of QRS Complex Power Spectra for Design of a QRS Filter

IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 1984
We present power spectral analysis of ECG waveforms as well as isolated QRS complexes and episodes of noise and artifact. The power spectral analysis shows that the QRS complex could be separated from other interfering signals. A bandpass filter that maximizes the signal (QRS complex)-to-noise (T-waves, 60 Hz, EMG, etc.) ratio would be of use in many ...

Abnormalities of the QRS Complex

1990
Abnormalities of the QRS axis and the QRS interval have been discussed in earlier chapters and will be noted in this chapter only as they relate to other problems. As a general rule, the QRS complex reflects primarily left ventricular activity and to a much lesser extent right ventricular activity, since the mass of the left ventricle is so much ...
