(FIT)-Module 5 Workshop 8: Device Cases-Poole Case 3 Question

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this case involving a 58-year-old female with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and a CRTD experiencing tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia (VT) seems to be the most likely diagnosis. The provided information shows a Medtronic device with a VF zone at 300 milliseconds and fast VT at 240 milliseconds. The heart rate plot indicates variations between ventricular and atrial intervals, suggesting VT. The configuration and rhythm termination details, along with the specific device settings, support the diagnosis of ventricular tachycardia over other types of tachycardia.
