Channel: Cardiology and Beyond
Date: 25/08/2020

Hey, after the introductory video on how to approach a case of wide complex tachycardia in part 1, in this video we will be diving deep into the details of the morphology criteria, Brugada criteria and the aVR criteria to differentiate VT from SVT with aberrancy.

❓ Active recall questions:
1. Check QRS morphology and axis
2. Onset of R to S nadir in precordial lead
3. See how tachycardia begins
4. See how tachycardia ends
5. Look for concordance of QRS in precordial leads
6. Compare with baseline ECG (if available)
7. Clinical: Look for BP, cannon waves - regular or irregular?
8. What is Brugada criteria?
9. How does lead aVR provide further clues?
