Mixed pattern of RBBB in precordial leads and LBBB in limb leads, with a higher rate of progression to complete heart block than typical bifascicular block
Augustus Desiré Waller (1856 – 1922) was a British physiologist who recorded the first ever electrocardiogram (ECG).
Bundgaard et al introduced us in 2018 to "Familial ST-segment depression syndrome", a new cardiac arrhythmia syndrome predisposing to atrial fibrillation, VT, and sudden cardiac death.
William Cecil Dabney (1849-1894) was an American physician and obstetrician. 'Devil's grip' (pleurodynia), the first to be published in North America.
In 2008, Haïssaguerre et al challenged the well-embedded term "benign" early repolarization by demonstrating a link between this familiar ECG pattern and idiopathic VF arrest
Aslanger et al identified a specific ECG pattern concerning for acute inferior occlusion MI in patients with concomitant multi-vessel disease, that does not display contiguous ST-segment elevation or fulfil STEMI criteria
Dressler beat: Specifically a 'ventricular fusion beat' in the presence of paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia. Wide complex tachycardia with VT
Spodick Sign: Stage I Pericarditis, a downsloping of the TP line. Described 1974 by American Cardiologist, David H Spodick (1927 – 2019)
David H Spodick (1927 – 2019) was an American Cardiologist. Eponymously affiliated with Spodick's sign in acute pericarditis (1974)
Right Bundle Branch Block (RBBB) activation of the right ventricle is delayed as depolarisation spreads across septum from left ventricle.
Also known as primary sinus tachycardia, inappropriate sinus tachycardia (IST) is a generally benign condition that has a prevalence of ~1% in the general population
