Triaging Triage ECGs
I’ve spent nine years working in an emergency department, which means I’ve also spent nine years performing electrocardiograms at triage. With a couple thousand waiting-room ECGs under my belt, I’ve noticed a few things: A lot of ECGs are ordered at triage. Many of them are performed on low-risk patients. Very few of those ECGs […]

RBBB - I.V., serial 12-leads, oxygen-etco2, position semi-fowlers, bilateral BP, patch EP for consultation if transport is 30 minutes.

No sinus rythm,but rather atrial flutter with Mobitz type 1 - Wenkebach phenomen

It is regularly irregular rythm.It seems like Mobitz type 1 - Wenkebach ,secondary to sinus tachycardia.It is visible P wave in V1 lead.We should find primary cause of sinus tachycardia?

On first glance it looks like afib rvr new onset. Without marching the qrs complexes out though, it looks like they are pretty regular, like an accelerated junctional rhythm with every 4th beat dropped. Looks like a p wave can be seen in v1/2, but not sure and I would print a longer strip out…

@ Eli — I don’t see AFlutter. That is, I see no indication of regular atrial activity at a rate consistent with AFlutter. Instead, the rhythm is irregularly irregular without P waves = AFib at a controlled ventricular response. In my opinion, one doesn’t need Sgarbossa criteria here to activate the cath lab. So, yes the…
