NOTE: To facilitate viewing — I have made up a Timed CONTENTS with LINKS (!) — which allows you to instantly Fast Forward on YouTube if you want to focus on a specific area (GO TO — http://ecg-interpretation.blogspot.com/p/n-ote-easy-link-my-17-minute-ecg-video.html). This 25-minute ECG Video (my 7th) — reviews the case of a 70-year old woman with chest pain who presents in a WCT (Wide-Complex Tachycardia) of uncertain etiology. Is this VT? And, if you think it is — How certain are you of your diagnosis? Our interpretation is discussed in detail. NOTE: Links to my ECG Videos (including a folder with Power Point Shows of these videos) — as well as info on my other ECG Resources can be found at — http://www.videoecg.com — Your Questions and Feedback are welcome!
