The compensatory pause after the PVC is slightly longer than the junctional escape interval and allows the junctional rhythm to escape for 5 beats. During this period, the P waves from the sinus ...

Junctional rhythm is an irregular heart rhythm that stems from a natural pacemaker in the heart known as the atrioventricular junction. The heart has several built-in pacemakers that help control its ...

This is an accelerated junctional rhythm and P wave activity can be seen at the end of the QRS complexes in lead I and lead III. The QT is quite prolonged. This ECG was from a patient with genetic ...

Accelerated junctional rhythm Left bundle branch block Chapman's sign indicating possible acute myocardial infarction Chapman's sign is used to diagnose an acute myocardial infarction in the setting ...

The rhythm is regular at a rate of 96 beats/min, although two shorter RR intervals (4th and 13th) (⊓) occur because of premature QRS complexes (↑). The QRS complex duration is normal (0.08 sec), and ...

Having an accelerated junctional rhythm occurs when the atrioventricular node in your heart beats too quickly. It happens as a result of damage to your heart’s primary natural pacemaker. There’s no ...

Tachycardia is when your heart beats faster than normal, even when you’re not doing anything. Junctional tachycardia is a form of supraventricular tachycardia, a type of racing pulse caused by a ...
