He presented to urgent care and was found to be in wide complex tachycardia at the rate of about 200 bpm (Figure 1). The patient was given diltiazem intravenously and converted to atrial flutter ...
May et al. propose machine learning algorithms that leverage QRS polarity direction and shifts to differentiate wide QRS complex tachycardias. Strong diagnostic accuracy is demonstrated ...
The Brugada Criteria are commonly used to determine whether a wide complex tachycardia is from ventricular tachycardia or supraventricular tachycardia with aberrancy. The Brugada criteria ...
On arrival, they found the patient to be in a wide-complex regular tachycardia at 160 beats per minute (bpm) and initiated advanced life support algorithms, which included intravenous amiodarone ...
Ventricular tachycardia refers to a wide QRS complex heart rhythm — that is, a QRS duration beyond 120 milliseconds — originating in the ventricles at a rate of greater than 100 beats per minute.
