1/10 – Ventricular Tachycardia
Simplified approach to evaluate tachycardia:
Rule #1 – If HD unstable ➡️ shock!
If HD stable, sit down & think.
Step # 1 - QRS: wide or narrow?
Step # 2 - Rhythm: regular or irregular?
This will narrow DDx!

2/10 - Wide complex tachycardia
Always consider clinical Scenario!
Look for history of MI and cardiomyopathy ➡️ strongly favor #VT!
* If structural heart disease is present, you will be correct 9/10 times with diagnosis of VT!
