@syamkumarmd For any visual learners - this artefact originates from the right arm. The artefact's largest amplitude is seen in I, II and aVR. Half the amplitude in aVL and aVF. 0 in III. And a third in the chest leads. @BroomwellECG

I have a very intriguing rhythm that was sent by a colleague. I see a long RP tachycardia with a trigeminal pattern. I have never seen a long RP behave in this way. I think this is re-entrant. Could the cyclical nature be due to alternating retrograde pathways? #CardioTwitter

RBBB does not always have a primary R wave in V1 - here are two cases that have qR complexes due to previous transmural infarction. You will not always see an rsR' in the anterior leads. RBBB: - QRS duration ≥120ms - Late, broad R in V1 - Broad S in V6 #pmcardio #ecg #rbbb

See how artefact originating from one of the limb leads behaves. Its behaviour is completely predictable. Here artefact from the left leg will cause a large spike in II,III and aVF (red). Half the artefact is seen in aVR and aVL (blue). A third will be seen in the chest (green).

A case of intermittent LBBB within the same traces. In the first ECG the abberation begins when the heart rate increases subtly to 90 bpm. In the second ECG the heart rate slows slightly and the QRS becomes narrow again.

Escape-capture bigeminy Our eye is naturally drawn to the 1st beat however its easier to understand this rhythm if you ignore the 1st beat and start at the 2nd: There is a P wave that conducts, followed by a short sinus pause. This is then terminated by a junctional escape...
