ECG Blog #99 (ECG Video-Blog-5) - Arrhythmia Management in Primary Care (Part 2)

-----------------------------------------
     This is the 5th installment of my ECG Video Blog. This 17-minute video continues a Clinical Look at Cardiac Arrhythmias from a Primary Care Perspective. Focus in this Part 2 is on ventricular arrhythmias  and, on bradycardia including diagnosis of Sick Sinus Syndrome and indications for pacing. In the final part of this video series (Part 3 — coming soon!— We'll conclude with discussion of the SVT rhythms that are commonly encountered in primary care.

NOTE: There are advantages to using a video format format. These include:
  • Ability to illustrate concepts not done full justice by the written word.
  • Greater dispersion of my content through Google & YouTube. This material is free for anyone to use.

         My goal in this 3-Part video series is to address the "art" of arrhythmia management from a primary care perspective. This includes cost-effective assessment as to whether a rhythm disturbance is present (with details on monitoring methods) — whether the arrhythmia is likely to be benign or more worrisome — and a practical approach to treatment.
    • Below in Figure 1 — a sample of some issues discussed in this Part 2 (Video-Blog #5 = Blog #99). I believe this video brings the topic to life!
