  2. Atrial fibrillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrial_fibrillation

    A 12-lead ECG showing atrial fibrillation at approximately 132 beats per minute Diagram of normal sinus rhythm as seen on ECG. In atrial fibrillation the P waves, which represent depolarization of the top of the heart, are absent. Diagnosis of atrial fibrillation is diagnosed on an electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG). The evaluation of atrial ...

  3. Supraventricular tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraventricular_tachycardia

    Atrial fibrillation: Red dots show atrial fibrillation activity. Atrial fibrillation meets the definition of SVT when associated with a ventricular response greater than 100 beats per minute. It is characterized as an "irregularly, irregular rhythm" both in its atrial and ventricular depolarizations and is distinguished by its fibrillatory ...

  4. Ventricular fibrillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_fibrillation

    Ventricular fibrillation (V-fib or VF) is an abnormal heart rhythm in which the ventricles of the heart quiver. [2] It is due to disorganized electrical activity. [2] Ventricular fibrillation results in cardiac arrest with loss of consciousness and no pulse. [1] This is followed by sudden cardiac death in the absence of treatment. [2]

  5. P wave (electrocardiography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_wave_(electrocardiography)

    If the baseline has a totally irregular form, this suggests fibrillatory waves of atrial fibrillation or possibly artefact; a saw tooth shaped baseline suggests the flutter waves of atrial flutter. With either of these rhythms, if the ventricular rate is fast, the fibrillatory or flutter waves can easily be misinterpreted as P waves.

  6. Premature atrial contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premature_atrial_contraction

    Premature atrial contraction; Other names: Supraventricular extra systole (SVES), supraventricular ectopy (SVE) Two PACs with a compensatory pause seen on an ECG rhythm strip. A "skipped beat" occurs and rhythm resumes 2 P-to-P intervals after the last normal sinus beat.

  7. Implantable loop recorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implantable_loop_recorder

    This trial found that ILR screening led to a threefold increase in atrial fibrillation detection and anticoagulation initiation. However, it did not show a significant reduction in the risk of stroke or systemic arterial embolism, indicating that not all screen-detected atrial fibrillation might warrant anticoagulation treatment.

  8. Rhythm interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhythm_interpretation

    There are 6 different sinus arrhythmia. [1] [2]A normal heart should have a normal sinus rhythm, this rhythm can be identified by a ventricular rate of 60-100 bpm, at a regular rate, with a normal PR interval (0.12 to 0.20 second) and a normal QRS complex (0.12 second and less).

  9. Multifocal atrial tachycardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifocal_atrial_tachycardia

    Multifocal atrial tachycardia is characterized by an electrocardiogram (ECG) strip with three or more discrete P wave morphologies in the same lead, not including that originating from the sinoatrial node, plus tachycardia, which is a heart rate exceeding 100 beats per minute (although some suggest using a threshold of 90 beats per minute ...
