Families and physicians often wonder what the terms“intraventricular conduction delay” (IVCD) or “incomplete right bundle branch block” (IRBBB) or “rsR'” on an electrocardiogram mean and what to do with the information.

An implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is a device implanted to regulate irregular heart rhythms. Like a pacemaker, an ICD consists of two parts. The leads are wires with electrodes at the tip that transmit electrical signals to and from the heart muscle.

An electrocardiogram (ECG) may be done. This is usually the first test for diagnosis. This test lets your healthcare provider see the signal of your heartbeat as it moves through the heart during a short amount of time. If you have any PVCs while the ECG is being done, they will show up on the ECG.

An AICD is a device that monitors a person's heart rate. They are generally implanted into heart failure patients. The device is programmed to perform the following tasks: speed up or slow down your heart, depending upon the heart rate.

In contrast to cardiac monitoring, the 12 lead ECG shows the 3-dimensional electrical activity of the heart recorded from 12 different leads or viewpoints. It provides the whole picture. This is achieved by using Bipolar (I, II & III) and Unipolar leads (augmented leads & precordial chest leads).

This means an ECG showing atrial fibrillation will have no visible P waves and an irregularly irregular QRS complex. The ventricular rate is frequently fast, unless the patient is on AV nodal blocking drugs such as beta-blockers or non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers.

The ICD can quickly detect life-threatening abnormal heartbeats (arrhythmias). It is designed to convert any abnormal heart rhythm back to normal by sending an electrical shock to your heart. This action is called defibrillation. This device can also work as a pacemaker.

The ECG app can record your heartbeat and rhythm using the electrical heart sensor on Apple Watch Series 4 or later and then check the recording for atrial fibrillation (AFib), a form of irregular rhythm. The ECG app records an electrocardiogram which represents the electrical pulses that make your heart beat.

Occasionally an ECG can show abnormalities that suggest you have SVT even when your heart rhythm returns to normal. As SVT can sometimes be difficult to diagnose, your doctor may refer you to a cardiologist (heart specialist) who specialises in the treatment of heart rhythm disorders, called an electrophysiologist.

Electrocardiogram (ECG). Because injured heart muscle doesn't conduct electrical impulses normally, the ECG may show that a heart attack has occurred or is in progress.

First-degree atrioventricular (AV) block is defined as a PR interval of greater than 0.20 seconds on electrocardiography (ECG) without disruption of atrial to ventricular conduction (figure). It is generally asymptomatic and without significant complications.

What is the difference between continuous cardiac monitoring and a routine ECG? Continuous monitoring is typically done in lead II or modified chest lead. There are only three electrodes, and the monitoring lasts more than 30 seconds. ... External electrical currents can interfere with the ECG tracing.

An implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD or AICD) is a permanent device in which a lead (wire) inserts into the right ventricle and monitors the heart rhythm. It is implanted similar to a single chamber pacemaker and the generator lays in the upper chest area and venous access is through the subclavian vein.

Your doctor may use an electrocardiogram to determine or detect: Abnormal heart rhythm (arrhythmias) If blocked or narrowed arteries in your heart (coronary artery disease) are causing chest pain or a heart attack.

['≥ QRS amplitude (voltage criteria; i.e., tall R-waves in LV leads, deep S-waves in RV leads)', 'Delayed intrinsicoid deflection in V6 (i.e., time from QRS onset to peak R is ≥ 0.05 sec)', 'Widened QRS/T angle (i.e., left ventricular strain pattern, or ST-T oriented opposite to QRS direction)']

Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is a diagnostic test. This test uses sound waves to see inside blood vessels. It is useful for evaluating the coronary arteries that supply the heart.

- Defibrillators. An AED is a lightweight, battery-operated, portable device that checks the heart's rhythm and sends a shock to the heart to restore a normal rhythm. The device is used to help people having sudden cardiac arrest. ... The electrodes send information about the person's heart rhythm to a computer in the AED.
