Dude, im in paramedic school, term 2 with cardiac, and these videos are amazing. Thank you for posting them, seriously. A HUGE blessing! you make it very clear and i love the way you draw on the screen as you explain. Thanks man, love it!
Wow, these videos are amazing! It helps so much that you go through several EKGs per rhythm, because like you said, every EKG is a little different even if the interpretation is the same. -3rd year med student taking an EKG elective
Thank you so much for these videos... I am enrolling soon into a CET program and your videos have been a great head start for me.... A much needed one apparently lol!!! Thanks again.
Hi, I am a patient who suffers from SVT, IST, Accellerated junctional and have had many ablations as well as pacemaker implantation and still suffer from accellerated junctional rhythms. I like your video and find it very informative, I think it would be very helpful for students to learn and understand the symptoms that occur as a result of the junctional rhythm. I am lucky, my doctor completely understands and listens.. but I have had other doctors look at me like a deer in headlights. Thanks for helping inform the masses!
Thanks for the video; it has really helped A LOT in getting me ready for my nursing exam tomorrow morning. Question though: @11:28, how does one know (outside of this video) that that antegrade inverted P-wave is not just the Q point? What can be said about what appears to be about the downward deflection following the T wave?
Awdaly, Junctional rhythms (accelerated junctional/junctional tachycardia) are typically not re-entry rhythms, while AVNRT/AVRT are. This is why we generally treat the SVTs (AVNRT/AVRT) with medication to break the reentry.
this is awesome have my finals coming soon and this helps me. what is the difference between the AVRT and AVNRT. is there any difference in their respective EKG's
Are there any deference between the Junctional and AV nodal reentrant tachycardia please ? . And please accept my acknowledgment for simplifying the arrhythmias , thank you so much .
Query: 8:23 and before you repeatedly mention the possibility of upright P waves within junctional rhythms. Then in your explanation/ drawing, you remind us of the reason the P waves would be inverted for junctional rhythms: since the atrial depolarization origin is junctional, it moves away from the lead II positive electrode, causing the negative P wave; but you never explain how the junctional rhythms could possibly cause upright P waves. Walraven text suggests that "if visible, the P wave will be inverted". The only possibility for upright P waves from junctional I can come up with otherwise is for aVR, but then the QRS would be inverted, which isn't the case in your 8:23 example. So, How is your 8:23 example of upright P wave with upright R possible from a AVJ origin? Thanks!
Indeed it is difficult to judge which of which exactly a part of that the atrial flutter and fibrillation and to some extent the MAT are might be the most malignant persistent rhythm that they m commonly manifested of the underlying pathology such as a CzhD , HHD and so forth
