Approach to ECGs - VT vs. SVT - Wide Tachycardias
DDx = VT vs. SVT with BBB
All
VT: - No RS complexes ... - Very broad complexes ... produce a hybrid complex ... onset of the QRS complex ... S-wave - RSR' complexes
VT versus SVT with Aberration - Interpretation Cheat Sheet

Features favouring VT
● Absence of typical RBBB or
dissociation (P and QRS complexes ... a VT run) and fusion ... beats (hybrid complex ... negative (QS) complexes ... Brugada algorithm
