(FIT)-Module 4 Workshop 6: Electrocardiographic and Electrophysiological Correlations-Asirvatham Case 4 Question

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses an electrocardiogram (ECG) comparison before and after administering adenosine to a healthy patient experiencing sudden tachycardia. After adenosine, additional ventricular extra stimuli were applied without changing the atrial activation sequence. This suggests tachycardia termination with adenosine and involves retrograde conduction analysis to determine if it's AV node or pathway-dependent. The speaker highlights the importance of parahisian pacing for accurately diagnosing whether retrograde conduction is related to the AV node or another pathway.
