(FIT)-Module 1, Workshop 1: Electrocardiographic/Electrophysiologic Correlation-Miller Case 1 Question

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Hi, this is John Miller from Heart Rhythm Society. I represent Indiana University School of Medicine, and we've got some workshops to go through here. These are my disclosures. First question, the rhythm strip shown above is from a 77-year-old woman two days after a hysterectomy. Two seconds after the end of the strip, QRS complex has reappeared. She felt lightheaded and thinks she was having a bowel movement at the time. She's never had CP. Based on this information, you advise a dual chamber pacemaker insertion, electrophysiologic testing with stressing of the AV conduction system, continued observation with no specific testing or therapy, or a stool softener.
