Arrhythmia | ECG and clinical features |
SVT with fixed left bundle branch block | LBBB present on baseline ECG |
QRS during tachycardia usually an identical match | |
SVT with functional LBBB aberrancy | Most often due to orthodromic AVRT |
At rapid rates, QRS alternans may be present | |
Atriofascicular antidromic tachycardia | Preexcitation may be minimal or absent during sinus rhythm |
Late QRS transition, leftward axis common | |
Frequently coexists with other accessory pathways or AV nodal reentry | |
SVT with bystander atriofascicular accessory pathway | Accessory pathway does not participate in reentrant circuit of orthodromic AVRT, AVNRT, or atrial tachycardias (including atrial fibrillation and flutter) |
Bundle branch reentrant ventricular tachycardia | Associated with acquired structural heart disease (cardiomyopathy, valvular disease) |
Prolonged PR interval and nonspecific IVCD often present during sinus rhythm |
